Welcome to
returning students and greetings to our new first year students. You
have been subscribed to Career Services’ weekly e-newsletter, the
Pitzer Planet. As you may already know, our office has
resources, services, and programming for students in ALL class years
and ALL majors (including those who are undecided).
We understand that
each of you is probably in a unique stage of career decision-making.
If any of these statements describe your current state of mind, then
please stop by our office:
·
I
want to go to graduate school but I don’t know what program to
choose or how to begin the process.
·
I
need a non work-study job.
·
I
want to do an internship but don’t know where to begin looking for
one.
·
I
have to declare my major next year but I don’t know what to choose
or I can’t narrow down to just one.
·
I’m
going to have to look for a “real job” after graduation but have no
clue how to begin.
·
What
can I REALLY do with a liberal arts degree?
The following is
just a partial listing of what Career Services can offer you:
alumni career connections, career-related books (many available for
overnight checkout), individual career counseling, fellowship
listings, internship listings, job search assistance, online job
search links, resume writing assistance, mock interviews, and more!
We have even created a “Four
Year Plan” to help you
through each year at Pitzer.

Night

One of the most
competitive career paths available for undergraduate students,
consulting is attractive to students because of its high

to make a powerful impression. Formal business attire is strongly
recommended!
