Elon University students and alumni will find it even easier to connect and take advantage of resources offered by Career Services on a newly redesigned web site that launched Thursday. The new site will help students, parents, and alumni more easily stay up-to-date with the 125+ on-campus programs, workshops, and other events offered each year by Career Services.
The site introduces a number of resources that have been added recently:
Going Global – The site provides in-depth employment and cultural information and other resources for individuals considering work outside the United States.
Perfect Interview – A new 24/7 mock interview system allows students and alumni to customize, save, and record practice/mock interviews. Interviews can be sent via e-mail to Career Services staff for a professional critique.
Perfect Resume – Embedded within the Perfect Interview system, this resource walks the user through the creation of a resume and ensures a high-quality look to the document, making it a tool for undergraduates who are starting to develop their resumes.
Elon Career Network – ECN is an expanded alumni and parent networking resource for students with nearly 400 “warm” networking contacts for Elon students to use.
Career Services Event Calendar – The calendar will list the many programs, workshops and events provided by Career Services.
Several additional interactive resources will be added to the site later this fall, including a new professional-quality video for use in Elon 101 classes to introduce viewers to Career Services.
In addition, several interactive “outcomes” maps that highlight where career services is building employer connections throughout the United States, where Elon students do internships, and where graduates find employment will be added.
