Career Services offers individual counseling to help you make career decisions, choose a major, and develop and implement career plans for your future. Students are assigned to a career counselor with responsibility for serving that major. Working with a career counselor in your area of interest ensures that you gain the most pertinent information for your needs and interests. The career counselor will help you to:
- Evaluate your interests and skills.
- Review what you have accomplished and enjoy.
- Translate the liberal arts and major content skills being gained in college into job skills sought by employers.
- Locate essential information related to your career
field(s) of interest. - Evaluate opportunities for gaining experience.
- Develop practical strategies to achieve your goals.
Counseling appointments may be scheduled by calling 757.455.3337 or e-mailing Career_services@vwc.edu.
Drop-in visits are available during regular office hours (on an as-available basis) to gain “quick question” assistance with your resume, cover letter, or other needs.
