The Career Services Office serves the primary function of preparing individuals to market themselves to prospective employers. This preparation takes many forms:

• Career research and exploration
• Resumé writing
• Cover & Thank You Letters
• Job searching
• Interviewing

The Career Services Office is located in 116 Sherman Hall. We have free handouts on career planning issues, job market trends, interviewing, resumé writing, and other career-related topics. There are over 300 job, internship, and career information resources on our website. Visit Job & Internship Resources and you will find helpful links cataloged by major, career interest, and occupational fields. The online Vault career library (for currently enrolled students) provides users with detailed overviews of occupations, industries, specific company profiles and message boards, career advice, and internship resources.

Western Illinois University and the WIU Career Services Office cannot guarantee, be responsible, or be liable for securing employment (full-time, part-time, intern, co-op, and contract) for any student or alumni.
