How Can the Career Centre Help?

We can help you at any stage of the career planning process, regardless of whether you:

  • don't have a clue what you want to do,
  • know only what you don't want to do,
  • want to explore a few existing ideas or come up with new ones
  • have a general idea and need to find tune it.

If you are unsure about your career direction, or how to get to your goal, a good first step is to consult with one of our experienced Career Counsellors to clarify your situation and map out a plan of action.

You also may want to consider getting involved in Connections, our Career Mentoring program.
