As you approach graduation, our staff are committed to assisting you in implementing your career plans. While the responsibility for finding a job is ultimately yours, we will help in any way we can, not only to find a job, but to find the right job. Employers utilize Career & Counseling Services to recruit graduating students & alumni for full-time positions by either interviewing on campus, accessing our Internet résumé database or posting their vacancies on our BUFFJobs system. To participate in on-campus interviews and our BUFFJobs résumé database, all you have to do is create an account in BUFFJobs and upload a résumé. To get more details about opening an account, read on...
