How Can YOU Support Your Child’s Career Development?

Listen to your student and help them identify their talents, strengths, and passions so they can identify the degree field or major that would be best for them
Encourage them to visit Career Services and meet with a career counselor. Counselors use intentional interviewing techniques to help students verbalize their interests and values.
Emphasize the importance of internships and leadership roles in student organizations to develop skills employers want. Attaining career-related experience should be balanced with academic studies and grades.
Promote volunteering, part-time jobs, and job shadowing
Ask them which classes they like and why
DO NOT apply to positions for them. This is a very important part of personal development that promotes self-study and reflection and is a skill that matures over time.
Encourage your student to attend career fairs (or any networking event). This is the time for your young adult to learn to communicate professionally and speak for themselves.
Career Services will help reduce and alleviate student fears and any intimidating factors through practice interviews and preparation workshops. Encourage your students to participate in the workshops and career networking events to prepare them for their professional job search.
