I didn’t realize Career Services was available to me at first, but discovering it made a huge difference. Their support with my resumé and cover letters completely elevated my applications and gave me confidence to apply for opportunities I would’ve hesitated to pursue.

What's the difference between a drop-in and a booked appointment?
