Career Peers are UM students—just like you—trained to help with the nuts and bolts of career prep. They know what it’s like to balance classes, jobs, and figuring out your next steps. Career Peers can:

  • Review your resume and cover letter and help you polish them up.
  • Share tips and tools they’ve used themselves to navigate career decisions.
  • Connect you with other resources at ELCS and beyond, if you’re looking for more support.

Career Peer Appointments

Career Peer appointments occur on the 2nd floor of Aber Hall. If you have any materials you want feedback on, or specific job postings you’re applying to, bring them with you. If you’re looking for general guidance and tips, just bring yourself!*

*If you’re ready for more in-depth conversations on topics like career exploration, CV’s or federal resumes, internships, grad school planning, and big-picture strategies, it’s best to meet with a Career Coach.
