I am graduating soon and starting to
feel tense. I believe I need help with my resume and interviewing
skills. Can you help?

|

our counselors can provide meaningful support and help in your job
search. We will assist in critiquing your resume and cover letter(s)
as well as offer suggestions for improving your other skill sets.
Additionally, our counselors will offer valuable suggestions as

people like you examine and relate career interests, skills and
values to academic majors. Our tools include a uniquely designed

Is telephone counseling effective? |
| |
|
Research indicates that telecounseling can be very effective, especially
with career counseling. In addition to providing convenience and
greater time flexibility, telecounseling tends to be more structured
than face-to-face counseling. As a result, the counselor and client
may be more focused and specific as they deal with issues and concerns.
