Services for Students and Alumni
Career Advancement Services will continue to operate remotely throughout the month of September. Hours of operation will be Monday to Friday, between 7 am and 5 pm.
SAIT students and alumni looking to meet with a Career Advisor can still book a virtual appointment on My Career Hub. Our events will remain virtual until further notice, including career conversations, employer sessions, and industry mentorship circles. Registration is through My Career Hub.
We’ve also created online tutorials that cover resumé and cover letter writing, interview strategies, and how to access our services. If you’re a SAIT instructor and would like to add any of our tutorials to your course on Brightspace, please contact student.employment@sait.ca.
Start here: My Career Hub
My Career Hub is your online portal to all things career advancement at SAIT.
Log in using your SAIT credentials (SAIT email address and password) to access the job board, register for events, book consultations and track your co-curricular record. You’ll also find great tools and resources, including a resumé template.
Connect with career advice
Need a hand building or updating your resumé? Want to make a great first impression online? Looking to learn from the job search wisdom of others? No problem. We can help.

You can also book a one-on-one consultation or email resumé review through My Career Hub. Or, stop by our office for a drop-in appointment, Monday to Thursday, 9 am – 4 pm.
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. |

Get involved, get skills, get credit
