Career Services — Services For Graduate Students

The Office of Career Services and Cooperative Education helps graduate students define their career goals and provides support and resources to develop an successful, independent and proactive job search.

We assist students at all Suffolk University Campuses.

Individual Advising/Phone Appointments

Meet with a counselor, either in person or by phone. Our Associate Director for graduate services will help you create an effective resume, develop successful interviewing techniques, devise networking strategies and identify job search resources. As part of the process, you may wish to do a career assessment test. Our battery of career-assessment tests includes the Campbell Interests and Skills Survey, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and CareerLeader, a web-based self-assessment for graduate business students. Please contact Michele Rapp, mrapp@suffolk.edu, if you are interested in Career Leader or any other advising or counseling services or assessments.

Full-time graduate students are strongly encouraged to participate in cooperative education or internship placements as a way to further their skills, clarify goals, and build their resumes. Graduate students are eligible for Co-op upon enrollment in their degree program.
