Career Services

The Penn State Beaver Office of Career Services serves current students and Penn State alumni in any stage of career development. Our services are designed to help you make informed career decisions and learn more about your ongoing journey or career management, before and after graduation.

Career planning is often a challenging process that can be complicated by many factors, such as others' expectations, lack of self-confidence, and labor market conditions.

Here are just a few of the topics we can help you explore:

  • Choosing or changing a career direction
  • Understanding the relationship between choice of major and career plans
  • Assessing abilities, interests, and priorities
  • Locating sources of career information
  • Learning about graduate school options and the admission process
  • Composition of a resume and a cover letter
  • Job search strategies
  • Creating a LinkedIn profile
  • Developing interview skills
  • Dressing for success
  • Posting your resume on the Nittany Lion Career Network (NLCN)
  • Any related concerns, such as making the transition from college to the workplace and coping with parental and/or financial pressures
  • Numerous other topics
  • Current students can access numerous career related resources on Canvas at PSU Beaver Career Services & Resources.
