As part of the Office of Student Life, Buckeye Careers is a university-wide initiative designed to support students throughout their professional development, with a focus on connecting them with local, national and global organizations.
Professionals from this office can assist students in determining their skills and talents and how those can be mapped to career goals. Assistance can be offered with a variety of topics, including translating skills gained from military service into "civilian language" for resumes, salary negotiation, job search etiquette, company research and getting ready for the job search or obtaining an advanced degree.
Once a student determines their career focus, taking advantage of assistance with job search, career preparation and internships/experiential learning can help with employment success.
