Career Development Center

The Career Development Center serves students and alumni in the career planning and job and internship search process. The center also offers assistance with applying to graduate school, including program selection and the personal statement.

Individual counseling sessions are offered at the center, along with TypeFocus, an online system that helps students examine their values, skills and interests to reach informed decisions about a career.

Workshops and programs are offered that help students develop competitive job search skills and strategies (e.g., résumé and cover letter writing, effective interviewing, LinkedIn accounts and networking).

Many resources are available 24/7 online such as job and internship postings and information about career fields. Employers seeking full-time, permanent and part-time employees and interns are connected with students. Work-study and non-work-study jobs are also available both on and off campus.

Current students and alumni may post résumés, view jobs/internships, and access the center’s online library with RIC's career management tool, Destinations (www.ric.edu/careerdevelopment/pages/destinations.aspx)
