Assessment
Before you begin your job search, it is critical that you have a focus. The first step with any job search is to carefully consider:
- Your skills, interests, and values.
- The type of position you are seeking
- Which industries and companies interest you.
At The Office of Career Services, we can assist you with your career exploration and self-assessment through counseling appointments and assessment tools.
Meet with a career counselor to:
- Identify career options
- Listen to your career-related concerns and issues
- Help you identify and clarify your career-related issues
- Refer you to resources, programs or other professionals, as appropriate
Please email or call us at 312-906-6542 to request an appointment with a career counselor.
