Hello everyone, my name is Kristen Loop, and I am a Career Assitant the Career Development Center. Now I know what you're thinking, The Career Development Center. That's a mouthful. Even breaking it down still creates a scary illusion.
Career. Everything about your future lies within this word. Development. What does that even mean? And Center, hmmm. . . . does this mean I have to sign up or can I just walk in? From the outside, The Career Development Center (CDC), may seem scary and made for people with a plan. But that's not the case. The CDC is a facility created with students in mind. Life after college may be tricky and we are here to help make the transition smoother.
A Career Assistent is available to answer questions about ANYTHING school, internship or job related. Even if you don't have a clue, just walk into the center and there will be students to assist you. Our Career Assitant schedule is posted online at our site: http://www.ashland.edu/career/.
A common question may be "Do you have any information about making resumes?" The answer is yes. Career Assistants are in the Resource Rooom for your aide, and there are a variety of pamphlets and manuals available for you to take home. There is no need to make an appointment, just come in any time between 8:00a.m. and 5:00p.m., Monday through Friday. If you would like to make an appointment with any of the Career Specialists, you can! They can help with career exploration, interviewing and graduate school, among other things.
Another question may be, "What else can you help me with other than resumes?" The CDC focuses on career research, resume and cover letter critiques, computer programs, job search strategies, company research and graduate school research. If you just need our services once, that's fine. If you decide to come in everyday, that's great too!
The CDC is a place for any Ashland University student to visit and feel comfortable. We are here to help, so please don't be afraid to come by and stop in!
