Career Center

Students are encouraged to contact the Career Center early in their academic careers in order to utilize the services available in the development of their long-range planning. The staff assists students with career counseling through evaluation and testing in the areas of skills analysis, interest identification, and values clarification. Computer-assisted career information searches and a Career Resource Library are also available.

The Career Center provides pre-employment preparation assistance through videotaped mock interviews and workshops on r�sum� writing, interviewing skills, and conducting an effective job search. Representatives of business, government, industry, education, and social agencies recruit UTD students at Career Expos and on-campus interviews. The office maintains daily updated on-line job listings for part-time, on-campus, and full-time positions with public and private employers. The Career Center also manages the Internship/Cooperative Education program.

All students register with the Career Center by completing an online registration profile through the UTD CareerWorks system. The student uploads a resume into the system, which can, in turn, be referred to employers. Employers also have access to candidate r�sum�s via R�sum� Books in the UTD CareerWorks system. For more information, contact the Career Center in McDermott Library 1.312. (Phone: 972-883-2943, Web: www.utdallas.edu/student/career, Email: [email protected]).
