Helping Your Student Develop Professionally

We work directly with your student to equip them with the knowledge and confidence to direct their own career success. When they make a coaching appointment or stop by for a drop-in session, they will work with our career coaches to identify their goals and develop tangible action steps to reach them. Our professional development services also include:

Access to tailored online and inperson information to help students evaluate options for majors, careers, and advanced study.

Expert advice and feedback on a wide variety of professional documents, ranging from resume creation to working on their graduate school application.

Your student has access to a much larger Career Network across campus. Our Career Coaches collaborate closely with network partners in specific schools/colleges to coordinate tailored professional development experiences.

Connecting Your Student to Opportunities

Handshake — Temple’s online job and internship portal — democratizes opportunities for students at Temple and exposes them to job/ internship postings from over 200,000 employers nationwide. Through Handshake students also receive targeted information about events, organizations, and job/internship opportunities throughout the year.

We maintain an online presence on all relevant social media channels to keep students informed of trends, job/ internship opportunities, and career advice and stories from a world of sources, including their fellow Temple students and alumni.

For the 2019–20 academic year, we hosted 100+ employer engagement events on campus, including job and internship fairs, networking and professional development events, and on-campus interviews, allowing students to connect directly with employers and industry experts.
