Career Services

The Office of Career Services serves degree-seeking students at the College of Graduate and Professional Studies (CGPS), as well as students pursuing certain certificate programs. Career Services offers personalized guidance for students designed to advance their overall career development while completing their academic studies. Also offered are several job related resources such as Career Fairs and eRecruiting, a job posting data base for students to search for full-time positions. Career Counselors aid students in developing career goals by exploring their interests and identifying their skills, values, and personality preferences with the use of career inventory assessments. Some of the other services that the Office of Career Services provides include interviewing programs, workshops, resume/cover letter critique services, and a resource center located in the CGPS library. Many of the resources and services can be accessed through the Office of Career Services' website homepage.

The main location of the Office of Career Services is on UMW's Fredericksburg campus in George Washington Hall, room 305. To contact that office, call (540) 654-1022, or go to the Career Services website. The Assistant Director of Career Services is available in the South Building at CGPS on Thursdays from 4:00 to 6:00 pm. She is also available for scheduled appointments at other times.
