Consultation services
| Did you know that hiring managers spend less than 11 seconds looking at a resume? Have one of our specialists review your resumé to make sure it will catch someone's eye, so it doesn't end up in the pile of rejected applications. |
| Schedule a practice interview and our specialist will ask you questions you can expect in real interviews like "what is your greatest weakness?" and "tell me about a time when you had to deal with an upset co-worker or customer." It's a great opportunity for you to familiarize yourself with the interview process without the risk of making mistakes that could cost you a job! |
| LinkedIn is a great tool for connecting with potential employers and future colleagues. Have one of our specialists review your profile to ensure it will get you noticed. |
| Have you been applying for jobs and getting no responses? Maybe you're not even sure where to start. We can take a closer look at how you've been going about your job search to identify potential areas for improvement, so you can increase your chances of success. |
| A co-curricular record (CCR) allows you to show employers the transferable skills and competencies you’ve achieved through co-curricular experiences. By taking part in CCR activities, you will receive an industry-recognized certificate that complements your transcript, making you a well-rounded candidate for any career opportunity. |
