Career Services and Resources

Office of Career Services

You want your Chicago-Kent degree to not just land you a job but also kick-start a fulfilling career. That’s why we emphasize practical, hands-on experiences throughout school and ongoing relationships and access to job resources years after you graduate.

As a student you will find an array of effective tools and resources for career search and development. Our Career Services Office sets you up for success beginning year one when you’ll be assigned a career adviser who will help you create an agenda for carving out your career path throughout your years at Chicago-Kent. Beyond that, our career services team offers individual career counseling and career planning advice to connect you with the career opportunities available in Chicago and beyond.

Whatever your passions or ambitions, the Chicago-Kent community is your pathway to the right externship leads, networking opportunities, and alumni relationships. And you can access the career services that we offer—including access to online job postings—as an alumni throughout your professional career. Are you an employer? We will connect you with well-qualified candidates to meet your staffing needs. We'll set you up with qualified candidates and arrange for on-campus interviews during our Fall Recruiting Program.
