Career Services
Students choose to attend ECPI because they want to gain the required skills necessary for entry into fast-growing job fields. Among those necessary skills is the ability to prepare for and conduct a job search. ECPI works with each student every step of the way as graduation nears and students begin an employment search.
ECPI’s dedicated Career Services Advisors are ready to work one-on-one with students to:
- Review resume
- Assist with interviewing techniques
- Discuss career choice
- Provide help in career/job-market research
- Assist with marketing the student's skills to potential employers
- Generate job leads and offer networking opportunities for employers and students
ECPI encourages each student to visit the Campus Career Services Department prior to enrolling and throughout their education at ECPI.
Career Services develops and maintains relationships with employers to determine hiring needs and to facilitate employment of students, placement of externs, and employment of graduates in positions related to their fields of study. Career Services assists students by developing interview skills, resume preparation and guidance on how to conduct a successful job search.
Although Career Advisors maintain contact with several employers to identify employment opportunities, students are also expected to participate actively in their employment search campaign and to assume ultimate responsibility for their employment.
Although graduates cannot be guaranteed employment or starting salary, ECPI has long been a source of qualified applicants for employers. ECPI graduates are often scheduled or referred for job interviews as employment openings occur. When out-of-state opportunities are presented, graduates are encouraged to consider relocation in order to maximize their earning potential and advancement opportunities.
