Career Services would like to start off by saying congratulations
to the 2013 Brock graduates! Don’t forget that if you plan on attending convocation,
the application for fall 2013 is due by July 1st. Spring 2013 convocation
will take place from June 11th to June 15th. Be sure to
check your specific faculty’s date on the Brock website.
Well, we know it has been a long journey but you have
finally made it…now what? Never fear, Career Services has some great resources
to help you with your post graduate decisions and planning.
1.
Career Services has a great section online
called “what can I do with my degree?” In this section of the Career Services
website, you will find a list of our Degree Exploration Guides. Career Services
has a DEG for each program here at Brock which will provide you with a list of
career options to explore, a list of the skills that you will have gained
from your Brock degree, and a variety of resources which will help you access job postings and employers in your field.
2.
If you are more of a face-to-face kind of
person, you can come visit us at Career Services in the learning commons of
Brock University. Located here are trained Career Assistants which can provide
you with additional resources to assist you in your career search.
3.
If you have decided after graduation that you aren’t
ready for the work force yet, you can look into some college post-graduate programs or graduate school.
4.
If you are ready to jump into the workforce, get
connected with Grad LINK. Once you sign up with Grad LINK you will have access
to highlighted job postings on LinkedIn, employer recruitment and networking
sessions, and career related articles and information.
5.
CareerZone is also a great job search resources
with online postings that you can sift through. Or expand your horizons and
search through the many online job posting websites.
6.
As a final note, don’t forget to check out our
great self-assessments which can be accessed through CareerZone. For more
information about self-assessments, check out my earlier blog post from May 7th
or go directly to the resource page on CareerZone.
We understand that deciding what you want to do after
graduation can be daunting. Whether you are ready for the work force, or want
to continue you academic career, Career Services has the resources to help you!
