Faculty and Instructors

Career Services is excited to partner with faculty and instructors in supporting student success. Together, we can equip students with the professional development tools, strategies and resources they need to explore possibilities, build confidence and prepare for meaningful careers.

Classroom Presentations

Interested in having a Career Services staff member connect with your students during your class, facilitate a workshop, or embed a career-related assignment into your curriculum? Use the following link to make your request: Faculty/Staff Classroom Presentation Request Form. 

Send students our way if they are:

• Exploring interests and potential career paths
• Unsure what they can do with their major
• Preparing to apply for jobs or internships
• Working to strengthen their interpersonal or professional skills
• Struggling to identify or talk about their strengths

Ways you can help students develop, prepare or earn extra credit:

• Encourage students to update their Handshake profiles.
• Recommend attending signature career events, like Resume Rx, Mock Interview Day, Job Search Boot Camp and Career Conversations.
• Refer students to Midweek Meetups for quick five- to 10-minute check-ins and next steps.
• Remind students to search and apply for Tri-C internships.
• Require students to schedule an appointment for individualized support.
• Collaborate with us on a tailored assignment.
• Invite us to your classroom for workshops on networking, interviewing, resumes/cover letters, or other career and professional development topics.

We're here to make partnership easy — and to help your students thrive. Let us know how we can support you!

Sample career assignment for your students:

• Attend a career event and have students submit a reflection statement of their experience
• Research two to three career paths using the Federal Reserve’s Occupational Mobility Explorer Tool
• Update their profile on Handshake, which includes an intro statement, work and volunteer experience, job interests, skills, etc. Search for jobs and internships, and create a saved search. (The more they look, the more opportunities aligned with their interests will appear in their feeds.) Submit a screenshot of their profile for feedback. Use regularly to land their next internship or job.
• Complete a career coaching session with one of our Career Success Coaches.
