Senior Season 2025

​​​​​​​​​Seniors: It's Go Time!

Let us help you ensure you are Set for Success!​

Whether you have a full-time job lined up or have just started seeking a position, the Career Center invites Seniors graduating during the 2024-2025 academic year to earn its Set for Success career readiness designation.

Earning the Set for Success designation means you'll have:

A Plan and the Tools You Need for Success: The program requirements will connect you with resources that will support you in planning and achieving your next steps.

A Graduation Honor Cord: Show off your career preparation achievements by proudly adding a Set for Success honor chord to your graduation look. Students who complete program requirements will receive their honor cord at cap and gown pick-up.

The process is simple and comprised of best practices that you should be engaging in as you approach graduation. Here’s what you need to do:

Prepare: Have your resume, cover letter, or LinkedIn profile reviewed by the Career Center using our in-person or asynchronous services.

Participate: Get connected by participating in a career coaching session, career event​, career fair, Career Center presentation in one of your classes, or other career event.

Deliver: Share your elevator pitch—a quick introduction you can use when networking—with the Career Center for feedback. You can deliver your elevator pitch to a Career Center representative by visiting our offices or by DMing us a video on Instagram.

Apply: Apply for one or more positions on Handshake. ​Heading to graduate school? Tell us which programs you've been accepted to and/or applied to instead. 

Once you've completed the tasks above, simply complete this form to order your honor cord.


*Please note: you must be a student graduating during the 2024–2025 academic year to receive an honor cord.

But That's Not All!

We're reserving time on our schedule for you! If booking an appointment on Handshake isn't convenient for you, join us for our virtual seniors and graduating students only drop-in hours!

Our career coaches will be available to connect with you via Zoom between 10am and 1pm on Fridays during Spring Quarter. During these 15 minute drop in conversations, our coaches will help you devise a plan for next steps and connect you with the resources you need to move your search forward - no matter where you are in the process! 

Priority Coaching Hours for Graduating Students
When: MOST Fridays, April 4 - June 6, 10am - 1pm*
Where: Join one of our coaches via this Zoom link during the days and times noted above.
Please note that you may be initially added to a waiting room if the coach is currently working with another student. You will be admitted to the Zoom room once the coach is free to meet with you. 

*Please note that the university will be closed in observance of Good Friday on Friday, April 18. Priority coaching will not be available that day. 
*Please also note that this service will not be available on Friday, May 2 as we will be hosting the first of our 3 planned Job Search Accelerators at that time. We hope you will plan to join us for that event! 

Our Job Search Accelerator is an excellent opportunity to start and/or reenergize your search. During an accelerator, you'll begin by conducting a personal needs assessment to identify the skills and resources that will position for success. Next, you'll have access to multiple workshops coving topics such as resume development, job search strategies, and interviewing skills, all designed to help you move your search foward!
