Our Services

Our goal is that every Catamount enters + navigates the world of work with confidence, courage, and curiosity.

We pursue this goal by connecting students to people, opportunities, & resources; by connecting local and national employers to UVM talent; and by embedding career readiness through the UVM experience.

From major choice to salary negotiation Our Services

Access to Opportunities

We hosts 6+ career fairs and 6+ networking events annually. Student have access to Handshake (the nation's leading college-to-career platform) and Parker Dewey (paid micro-internships) - among other tools. We are constantly expanding pain internship opportunities throughout the state & beyond.

Connections with People

Networking is critical to exploring options, accessing opportunities, and gaining insights. This is why career Interest Groups (IGs) are at the heart of our efforts. Instead of having to go build a network on your own, IGs invite students to come join dynamic networks with shared interests.

Career Coaching

We are open for drop-in hours weekly, offer appointments to matriculated students, and provide pre-professional advising to Pre-Med, Pre-Dent, and Pre-Law students.
