Career Planning For The Collegiate Client

Off To College!

There are few life experiences that are both exciting and
overwhelming at the same time. Going off to college is
certainly one of those experiences. After months of scouting
for the ideal school, reviewing course descriptions and figuring
out how you're going to pay for it all, the angst of the process
gives way to elation. Preparation and hard work have helped
you get to this point and Career Pathways can help you
get the most out of your college experience.

We offer assessments that focus on natural abilities and
couple these results with career coaching to help you leverage
collegiate choices with the demands of the real world. We want you to be wildly successful and prepared for the challenges of a competitive workforce. We'll even help you choose classes that are relevant and meaningful, as well as, explore internship opportunities and help you prepare for that all important day . . . graduation.

If you are considering college within the next year, contact Career Pathways before you go off to college. Get the support and career planning help you need to develop a career path that is rewarding and satisfying.

Graduating Soon

You've done it! You are embarking on college graduation and no
doubt the years have been filled with both laughter and tears.
What a time to celebrate life and the pursuit of your dreams.
By now, you've had internships and independent studies that
have supported your career aspirations. Now it's time to leverage
all of your experiences to refine your career pursuits and prepare
to enter the workforce.

You'll soon discover that being in college, even if you worked
while in school, is not quite the same as being part of the
workforce every day. The rules are different. The pace is different.
The expectations are different. The demands are different.
You might be wondering if you are really prepared at all for the
career that lies ahead. The career planning specialists at
Career Pathways understand exactly what you are going
through and can offer support, guidance and techniques to help
you master the idiosyncrasies of the workforce.

First "Real" Job

If you find yourself saying something like "Well it's not glamorous, but it's work", it's time to contact a career planning specialist at Career Pathways. Don't let your first real job be the beginning of jobs that don't speak to who you are and what you want out of life. Too often, bright-eyed, energetic graduating coeds take a job, instead of planning out a career path. Before long, you're merely working instead of contributing in the meaningful way that you thought you would.

It's easy to get knocked off track once the reality of paying off school loans and settling into your first apartment creeps in. But with "been there, done that" career planning consultants available to you, Career Pathways can help you make decisions about choosing your first "real" job. This way, you make choices that build into a solid career path and put you on the road to career success.
