Career Services for Westminster Choir College Students have access to:

Individual Career Counseling
Individual appointments may be scheduled with a career counselor to discuss career planning activities such as identifying interests and skills, starting a job search campaign, resume writing, and obtaining information on the graduate school application process.
Career Assessment
Under the guidance of a career counselor, students may take advantage of a variety of assessment tools designed to help match skills and abilities or majors to the world of work.  Career Services offers computerized versions of the Strong Interest Inventory and the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.
Internships/Externships
The Career Services Office is pleased to offer information about non-credit, paid/unpaid internship opportunities to qualified students.  Internships for academic credit can be arranged through the Faculty Coordinator.  Resource information on internships is available in the office.  Internships provide students with quality career-related experience before graduation.
Graduate Study
Students are encouraged to use individual career counseling to develop their graduate school plans.  Counselors can provide information on the application process and assist by proofreading essay statements.  In addition, graduate school guidebooks and information on graduate school web sites are available.

A career counselor will coach students in interviewing techniques and role-play an actual interview.  Feedback is provided.
Career Talks/Faculty Panels
Alumni are invited to Career Talks to speak about their career path and to offer tips on getting started in a chosen career area.  Faculty Panels consist of faculty members and possibly also alumni.  Career-related topics are selected by faculty and the Career Services office.  Both of these events are open to all students, undergraduate and graduate.
Credentials Files
A current file of references may be maintained in the Career Services office.  Upon the candidate’s request, we will mail copies of reference letters to institutions where employment is sought.  A file can be tailored for each specific position, incorporating those references which are most appropriate to that job.  Copies are sent in an attractive cover, personalized with the candidate’s name and the title of the position.  If preferred, reference letters may also be self-maintained.

Alumni have access to resources in the Career Services office as well as web-based job listings and alumni networking.  Alumni are eligible to utilize career counseling, assessments, resume writing and other job search assistance free of charge.  Alumni may view all job listings through Broncs Career Link.
