The Career Connections Center strives to serve students, faculty, alumni, and employers in an increasingly diverse and competitive job market. Throughout the academic year, Career Connections facilitates workshops and seminars on career exploration and job search topics to help students develop solid career readiness skills.
The Houston Career Consultant hosts in-person presentations and live webinars on topics such as job search, resume building, interviewing, and more.
