I’ve been a career counselor for nine years. In those nine years, I’ve met with a multitude of students, some prepared and eager to meet with me, and some merely in my office because their parents told them to see me or they saw me speak at orientation and wanted to see what I can do to help them. I can do a lot for you; I’m a wealth of information regarding job search strategies, negotiation tips, networking contacts, and resources to make your search easier. However, if I don’t get the opportunity to ask you some questions and you don’t ask me the right questions, I can’t answer help you as best I can. I’ll try my best to anticipate what it is that I think you need to know, but that’s not always effective depending on your personality, experience, or the depth of our relationship.
