What's in a good resume? What questions should you ask at a job interview? And how do you go about lining up job interviews in the first place? 

It all starts your freshman year!

Find out more by accessing the Career Services Office's Gameplan, written specifically for students who are entering IUP as freshmen.

By preparing you to deal with issues such as those, IUP's Office of Career Services can help you lay the groundwork for making a smooth, successful transition from college to the world of work--at the beginning of your college career.  Don't wait until the end of your college years to plan the rest of your life.

The office's services include:

  • Workshops and seminars on issues such as careers and values, job hunting strategies, and interviewing techniques
  • A current list of job openings in a variety of fields
  • On-campus recruiting sessions for prospective employers
  • Career and job fairs, such as the Minority Career Symposium and the IUP Teacher Recruiting Fair
  • A candidate referral system
  • An employer database
  • Around-the-clock job hotline
  • A listing of summer employment opportunities

The best part is, you can use the resources of the Office of Career Services long after you've graduated.
