Career Prep for Seniors

12 spots. One semester. Walk into your job search ready.

If you’re a senior who needs a refresh before you launch your post-grad job search —then Career Prep Program might be exactly what you need.

This is a semester-long program built for seniors who want to enter their job search with real clarity and confidence. Open to all majors. Only 12 spots. A $75 stipend is provided.

What you’ll gain:

  • A clear sense of your professional identity
  • Sharper communication skills
  • A stronger approach to job applications
  • Practical workplace professionalism knowledge
  • A reflective practice you can carry into your career

How it works — three parts:

  1. Professional Identity (self-paced online module, complete by 10/23) — Build self-knowledge around meaningful work and walk away with a drafted personal mission statement.
  2. Communication and Curiosity (hands-on workshop, Strommen Center, 11/5) — Work directly with staff to update your LinkedIn and resume, and get personalized search recommendations while building your networking and interviewing skills.
  3. Workplace Readiness and Reflection (interactive workshop, Saturday 12/5, 9am–12pm) —Build the confidence and reflective habits that carry you through your work and beyond.

One note: this program is for students not currently in another job support program (Bonner, Travelers, etc.).
