Career Center

To a college student, the word career can be very scary. For four years, we learn all about a certain area of study, and after the day we graduate, most are tossed into uncharted territory. As I have mentioned in earlier blogs, UMaine is constantly seeking new ideas and developing new programs to help ease the many transitions students undergo throughout their college years. The Career Center on campus is another one of those programs. Located on the third floor in the Memorial Union, the Career Center provides countless services to help students reach their career goals. If you need help writing your resume, go to the Career Center! If you need help finding local internships, go to the Career Center! If you need help simply researching your career options according to your major, go to the Career Center! This place can help you every step of the way. They even provide mock job interviews that you can sign up for at your convenience.
If for some reason you can’t find the time to visit the people in the Career Center or you are one of the fortunate ones and already have your entire life and career mapped out for yourself, they always have helpful forms right outside for the taking. From resume tips to proper social etiquette, the Career Center has a helpful form for you to take as you pass by. The Career Center is definitely a great resource for students at every stage in their college career at the University of Maine.
