Meet with a Career Advisor

ECS has shifted to a hybrid delivery model, allowing for both in-person and virtual appointments. All appointments will be conducted in accordance with Ohio State efforts to keep students, staff, faculty, and our partners safe during COVID-19. The ECS website and Handshake include up-to-date event information. We are excited to help you with your job search needs!

Get professional help with:

  • Resumes: Content, appearance and strategy advice in a one-on-one session with a career advisor.  Much more than just proofreading!  Start by creating a resume using an ECS template—look in your Handshake account for resume template options
  • Job Search Documents: Stand out from your competition, by using cover letters, reference pages, and thank you letters!  We’ll help you tailor your documents to specific postings and ensure you are including relevant material. Look at your Handshake account for an extensive list of job search guides and templates
  • Interviewing: Our knowledgeable advisors facilitate workshops about interviewing styles and strategies. We also offer individual coaching, seasonal mock interviews, and employer feedback for improving your skills. Take advantage of Big Interview (available on the “Home” page of your Handshake account) to improve your interview skills from the comfort of your home
  • Job Offers and Negotiation: Should you take that offer as is or try negotiating? Need help juggling deadlines?  Review your options with an advisor
