Our Career Peers continue to have a strong connection with students helping to inspire them about the
importance of gaining career related experience as early as their freshman year. This year we have several
assistants who can give brief updates on special events, do class presentations about Career Development
services, the value of finding internships as well as meet one-on-one with freshman and sophomores.
The Career Development Center web page is an excellent resource for student, staff, faculty and employers.
We continue to provide new internship and job search links related to ESU majors. The website is

One major Career Development Center priority is to increase the number of local internships so that

employers register on warrior careers http://warriorcareers.esu.edu and post the opportunities. Students
can apply on-line with their resumes.

WHAT STUDENTS & ALUMNI ARE SAYING ABOUT THE CAREER DEVELOPMENT CENTER
“I was offered a full-time position after
doing my internship which was a
required for my psychology-counseling
degree. I felt that the ESU Career
Development Center helped me build
my resume and I would recommend all
ESU students to use this resource. I just
wish that I knew about the center and
all the career preparation classes before
my last semester at ESU. I believe that
without being required to do an
internship, I would still be unemployed.”
-Psychology Major ’13
“Career Development
provided the resources to
not only schedule an
interview, but handle tough
interview questions. Thanks
ESU Career Development!”
-Chemistry Major ’13
“After staying home for the past 10 years to
raise and homeschool my children, I
entertained the idea of going back to work,
part time. I came to ESU's Career
Development Center to seek guidance in
rewriting my resume and found the center
extremely helpful and supportive. ESU's
Career Center opened up doors for me that
I would not have known about otherwise in
the areas of a job search, writing my resume
and gathering references. Thank you for all
your help and empowering me to know that
yes, after being out of my field of study for
some time, there are opportunities out there
to get back in and use my degree!”
-Sociology Major ’01
