Career Services

Peer Career Advisors

Peer Career Advisors or PCAs are student volunteers who play a valuable role in supporting the office staff.  They are trained to assist students with the following career issues:

  • Resume/Cover letter writing
  • Career decision making
  • Using our online resources such as eRecruiting, Alumni Online Community and Career Search
  • Exploring graduate programs
  • Job and internship search basics

PCAs are generally available to assist on a drop-in basis between the hours of 10:00am and 4:00pm, Monday through Friday, when students are in session during the Fall and Spring semesters. Stop by Career Services to receive help from one of your peers!

In addition to offering career advice, PCAs also plan Career City Coffee Cafe, a fun and educational event with a coffee house atmosphere.  This event, held during the fall semester, offers students an opportunity to learn more about Career Services while watching some of their favorite student groups perform.

Meet the PCAs here!
