INTERNSHIP PROGRAM
Designed to take place in the Junior and Senior years, internships can be pursued for career exploration and skill-building applications of classroom knowledge. This experience also gives students an opportunity to gain an understanding of the professional and corporate culture. Successful internships can provide students with excellent recommendations as they begin to look for employment. Internships sometimes lead to full time employment after graduation. Varying in length and requirements, an internship may be worth up to 6 semester hours of credit. Click here for more information about internships. 

CAREER DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOPS
Scheduled once per semester, this workshop series is designed to assist you in preparing for internships and employment.  Completion of the CDW series is a prerequisite for enrolling in an internship.  Some of the topics included are resume and cover letter writing, interviewing skills, and business etiquette and dress.  Click here for more information about the Career Development Workshop. 

CAREER MENTOR PROGRAM
The ICSC maintains a listing of alumni who have agreed to serve as career mentors to current Wesleyan students. Career Mentors can answer questions about their work, the cities they live, and more. Since networking is one of the most effective ways to find a job, getting a Career Mentor is a great idea! Click here for more information.

RESUME SERVICE
Students may schedule an appointment, email, or simply drop off their resumes/cover letters to be critiqued. The ICSC also provides all students and alumni free access to the Optimal Resume program up to six months after graduation. Optimal Resume assists with formatting, provides content examples, and allows students to create a resume website. It also enables students to have their resume available for the NCWC resume book that is occasionally requested by employers.     

MOCK INTERVIEWS
In this program students are requested to submit the job description of a position for which they would be interested in applying for in addition to the cover letter and resume they would normally send to apply for such a position. Once these materials are received by the ICSC, the student may schedule an appointment to come in for a mock interview for the position. The interview will be conducted by the ICSC Director, who will role-play as the hiring employer. This program gives students a chance to practice and improve on their interview skills and is a great way to prepare for real interviews they will experience in the future during their job hunt. 

ONLINE JOB LISTINGS
The ICSC maintains an on-line listing of career and job opportunities. These listings include full and part-time, seasonal, and internship opportunities. Updated daily, the list can be accessed by all students and alumni. Click here to view the ICSC jobs list.
