Mock Interviewing Program

This program helps students practice their interviewing skills. These practice sessions may be videotaped if the student would like. Call the Office to schedule an appointment.

Resume Referral System

This system makes student resumes more readily available to employers. Students may purchase a disk on which to develop resumes and have this information downloaded into a database system. This will enable employers to call the Career Services Office with job openings and have these positions matched with qualified candidates from the graduate/student database. The candidate's resume can then be faxed through this system directly to the employer.

On-Campus Interviewing

Employers come to campus to recruit and interview for various positions. Employer visitation dates and the related job announcements are printed in the campus newspaper, Newark Campus This Week, posted in the Career Services Office and with the appropriate academic department. Scheduling of interview appointments is handled by the Career Services Office.
