1 The Five Steps to Finding an Internship Center for Career Development University of Connecticut Spring 2014

2 Center for Career Development Mission Statement The Center for Career Development (CCD) at the University of Connecticut is dedicated to excellence through offering the highest levels of service to our students across all schools, colleges, campuses, and disciplines. We support the intellectual growth of our students by providing programs and experiences that promote selfawareness and engagement as they identify a course of study and pursue opportunities to become contributing members of the state, national, and world communities. Through partnership with employers, alumni, faculty, and staff, we connect students to quality career development resources, internships, experiential learning, and postgraduate opportunities.

3 Center for Career Development Programs and Services Career Development Programs A variety of workshops are offered throughout the semester. These programs focus on the job search process and include topics such as résumé writing, interviewing, how to find an internship, and more. Customized sessions can also be requested by student groups, faculty, or staff.

4 Center for Career Development Programs and Services (cont.) Career Coaching Consists of one-on-one sessions with a career consultant during which students receive advice on a variety of topics from what to consider when choosing a major to how to conduct a professional job search and everything in between. Students interested in meeting one-on-one with a career consultant begin by stopping by the office for a 15-minute walk-in session Based on the outcome of this first meeting, arrangements for more in-depth follow-up meetings can be made.

5 Center for Career Development Programs and Services (cont.) Experiential Learning The Center for Career Development (CCD) will provide resources and information on how to find the internship or cooperative education experience that s best for you. If you are interested in visiting a company to experience a potential career option first hand, consider Career Expedition Day.

6 Center for Career Development Programs and Services (cont.) Corporate Partner Relations An extensive number of employers visit campus each semester to recruit talented UConn students for internships and full-time jobs through career fairs, on-campus interviews and other special events.
