“I was so excited to get out of high school and move into the dorms at my new school.

College4Careers has helped me with everything related to school and I am so glad they will still be helping me in college!”

What Students Say

“I spent a lot of time searching for jobs on the internet and sending out my resume with no luck. After my first meeting with College4Careers I realized I was not using an effective job search strategy. We immediately identified 4 jobs that looked like a good fit and we spent 2 hours updating my resume for each job before I sent them in. I got 2 interviews for next week! Now we are researching the companies, practicing how to answer the interview questions, and deciding what to wear.”

College Graduate

“The last three summers I worked as an intern at a big accounting firm in my college town. I got a lot of good advice during my College4Careers phone meetings about networking while I was there and how to go about it. That was how I got to know all of the managers in the real estate division and when a position opened up last month, one of them actually reached out to me and asked me if I was interested in it! I had been working on my negotiation skills during my last two College4Careers visits and I not only got the job, I was also able to get my moving costs covered and an extra signing bonus!”

College Graduate

“I thought I would have an easy time getting a job once I graduated but I just could not get an interview. I started to work with College4Careers in October and we spent a lot of time getting my social media cleaned up, my resume updated, and my interview skills perfected. The next batch of applications I sent out in December got a lot of hits and I got several phone interviews and then 4 live interviews. I had 2 job offers by January and I am starting my new job next week.”
