The Career Development team meets individually with students to support career development. You can schedule an appointment to discuss resumes and cover letters, exploring majors and careers, interviewing and professional dress, how to find an internship or job, and much more. Our team partners closely with the Schools and Colleges at UNCG and serve as designated liaisons for those majors, but remain available to meet with all students in person, by phone, or via video conference. Stephanie Larson (snlarson@uncg.edu), UNCG career coach and Liaison for the Bryan School of Business and Economics, shows us how easy it is to set up an appointment with their team before you graduate.
