The first step is you! Self-Exploration allows you to learn more about who you are and who you want to be.

Knowing what you're good at, what you're interested in, and what is important to you will help to clarify different options and determine the right ones for you.

When you think of the Career Center, you probably think of our accomplished Career Counselors and skilled Peer Educators.

Think of both as caring and knowledgeable tour guides on your college journey, helping you learn more about yourself and the world of work.

Choose an academic direction that's right for your goals, and create a plan of action to point you towards success in school and your career.

Whether it's through counseling or your own research, the Career Center is full of helpful resources both on-campus and online!

There's no substitute for experience, and the Career Center aims to provide as many real-world connections to employers as possible.

Handshake lists jobs and internship opportunities from companies looking specifically for CSUN students while CareerLink can help you explore a variety of experiential opportunities!

With events like 60 Seconds to Success, job fairs and informational interviews, students can use their time at CSUN to adequately prepare for the working world.

The 21st century is asking more of students than ever before, and so are employers! Do you know all the most commonly asked interview questions? How would you rate your digital literacy? Have you researched the projected changes coming to your industry field?

Bridging the gap between college and workplace can be overwhelming, and in today's world of a constantly evolving job market, soft skills are becoming more vital than ever. Companies are constantly looking towards a shifting economic future that requires the latest skills, both hard and soft.

That's why the CSUN Career Center wants to make sure you're as prepared as possible for any situation! From learning about emotional intelligence so you can excel in any environment with your communication and teamwork to acquiring the necessary training to really shine in the workplace, we want every Matador to feel confident in their career potential.

The Career Center wants to help each CSUN student succeed in their chosen fields, but the path to success is not always a straight one.

Checking in with yourself, reevaluating your goals and meeting with knowledgeable Career Center staff can help ensure you stay on course to achieve your dreams. It's not always about the big picture decisions like choosing your major. Sometimes one class or piece of knowledge can be enough to propel you to new heights.

There is a lot the Career Center has to offer, and we want you to feel comfortable taking advantage of all the resources we have available.
