Student Use of Career Center Correlates to Job-Search SuccessResults from NACE’s 2009 Student Survey* show that students who used career center resources intensely were more likely to land a job or get a job offer than others who didn’t use or used the career center in a limited way. Nearly 26 percent of those who reported “intense” use of career center services (i.e., the student used a variety of services, not just the most popular offerings—job listings and resume development help) had accepted a job compared to 21 percent of those who didn’t use the career center. Similarly, 50 percent of those who reported intense use had a job offer compared to 43 percent of those who didn’t use the career center. * The 2009 Student Survey was conducted from February 19 through April 30, 2009; more than 35,000 students from more than 840 colleges and universities nationwide—including more than 16,500 graduating seniors—participated. |
