We're here to help you:

  • Explore your path: Get personalized career advising, interview prep, and feedback on résumés and cover letters.
  • Access tools: Explore databases, resources, and tools to understand your skills, find opportunities, and build connections.
  • Build networks: Join Skidmore-exclusive events, industry panels, and recruitment programs.
  • Unlock opportunities: From internship funding to alumni mentorships, we connect you with your next step.
