Career Services
Our mission at Tiffin University’s Career Services is to empower students with the knowledge, skills and resources to embark on successful and purposeful careers. We achieve this through:
- Major Exploration: Self-assessment paired with major and career research to help you decide on the right major and career path for you.
- Resume Writing & Development: Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve got close to a finalized draft, we can help you create and/or update your resume to be more successful in the job search.
- Cover Letter Writing: Draft unique cover letters tailored to the position you’re applying to with our assistance, getting you closer to your dream job.
- Interviewing: Develop your interviewing skills with techniques, advice and tips or go through a formal, personalized ‘mock interview’ to prepare for an upcoming interview.
- Internship and/or Job Search: Whether you’re looking for an internship or your first career, we can guide you through the process of connecting with employers, searching for relevant positions online, tracking your applications and much more. We can also assist you with salary negotiations once you receive an official job offer.
- Graduate School Research & Applications: For students interested in continuing their education to reach their future career goals, we can help you research graduate schools and programs that align with your intended outcomes and with the documents needed for the application process.
- Handshake: Handshake is Tiffin University’s online job board for on-campus jobs, internships and career opportunities. Students automatically get access to this platform and can sign in with their Tiffin University email address and password at: tiffin.joinhandshake.com
- Post-Graduation Planning: Once you’re getting ready to graduate, meet with us to put together a formal plan of action for your next steps after commencement.
- Dragon Armoire: Select a free outfit from our professional clothing closet for an interview, internship, career fair, research conference or your first day on the job. The best part? You get to keep it!
- Career Fairs & Events: Attend one of our many Career Fairs and/or events for additional career development and preparation and to meet with employers who are actively hiring. Find all of our upcoming events on Handshake under the Events tab.
Most of our services are offered through personal and individualized one-on-one appointments. To schedule an appointment, email careerservices@hrfjk.com or schedule an appointment through Handshake.
