Welcome future social workers! We are your Career Success Professionals: a team of dedicated professional helpers.  Collectively, we have educational and professional backgrounds in social work, counseling, education, federal government, non-profit, church, policy, and business. We understand what motivates you to serve in a helping profession and we will apply our experience to help you connect your passion to your career. 

Whether you are planning for full-time employment, graduate/professional school, a gap year, or you aren’t quite sure yet, our team is here to assist you in identifying goals and developing an individualized plan for achieving those goals. Your Career Success Professional will listen to you describe your interests, experiences, and skills, then help you present that information in a compelling way in job/internship and graduate school applications. We want to help you so you can help others! 

We understand what makes social workers unique; and it is with this knowledge, we recruit employers who value what you have to offer and connect you through job postings, information sessions, and career fairs.
