Xavier University

The Career Advisory Services

The Career Advisory Services Committee is in charge of all Career Advisory Services related affairs. It looks into the Summer Internship as well as the Final Career Advisory Services of the students. It includes both faculty as well as student members.

The career advisory services office supports the educational mission of the university by helping students to develop, evaluate, and pursue career goals. In the process, students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to make lifelong career decisions. Career services offices accomplish these goals through career counselling and a range of programs and services designed to help students make the connection between the academic program and the workplace.

Ideally, the career advisory services office assists students throughout their stay at the university, providing appropriate assistance at each stage of the student’s career development. This process often begins with career counseling designed to help students develop the self-knowledge and awareness of options needed to select an academic major or a tentative career direction. Students are guided in thinking about their interests, values, competencies, and personal characteristics. Through conversation and exercises, students often discover previously unidentified interests.
