Campus Career Services

Rowan’s Career and Academic Planning (CAP) Center is one of the best resources students can take advantage of at Rowan if they hope to make in the real world.

This service gives an opportunity for any student to come in for a variety of services that include resume building, interviewing, academic advisement, career exploration, and everything else in between that goes into the process of funding a job post-graduation.

One very special service the CAP Center offers is assistance with finding internships. Our professor tell us that internships help you gain experience in the field. Internships are important and they are all over the place. If you need help, this is one resource that could help you land your dream experience.

Rowan’s CAP Center is linked up to eCampusRecruiter. It is a website that posts your resume up and allows employees to look at and allows you to possible land a job, internship, or co-op position.

Major and career exploration that could assist students in researches what professions could go along with different majors. The page is divided by academic colleges and majors and links to information that is important to check out!

Most colleges have similar services to the CAP Center. Check out the websites for Virginia Tech and University of Pennsylvania. At Virginia Tech they offer a service called VT CareerLink. This assists Virginia Tech students to link up with alumni that volunteer to put their time to answer questions on internships, co-op, and job positions. The advice is precious for career VT students because the alumni understand what this students are going through.

At UPenn their career services now offers helpful podcasts to students. Two podcasts including tips about facebook and an uncoming career fair.

I also encourage all of you to check out the blog of Renee Ernst, who is a fellow classmate in my online journalism class! Her blog is fantastic and offers a lot of additional information about the CAP Center.

Good luck in your job searches!
