Career Centers

Career Center services are available at each campus location. Students can meet with a career development advisor to discuss their career pathway, college major and occupational options. Students can receive assistance with resume and cover letter writing, LinkedIn profiles, and job and internship searches. The Career Centers offer online career assessment inventories for students to become self-aware about their interests, values and skills and learn how these relate to career pathways, majors and occupations.

Meet with a career development advisor to facilitate your career advising needs or schedule an in-person or virtual appointment. We encourage all PBSC students and recent alumni to upload their resumes to the College Central Network online job portal to search for jobs and internships.

The Career Centers offer career pathway planning, career assessments and career exploration. Job readiness workshops and programs include: resume writing, mock interviews, job search strategies, professionalism in the workplace, career fairs, industry career panels and other career events. We encourage students to explore our webpage and make the best use of online career planning tools.

SLS 1300 Career Self-Assessment - 1 credit

SLS 1302 Career Information and Decision Making - 1 credit
