What our learners are saying

"Career Services gave me insight into the process hiring managers/recruiters go through and how to optimize communication. The resources and feedback for improving my online presence and resume optimization were invaluable. Once I had moved into the final stages of interview[ing] and receiving an offer, I had great support on how the process would work and how to represent myself in negotiating compensation."

"With a background in science, I wanted to get better at working with data. I was not having success with self-learning. I needed access to an instructor and tutor to walk me through the parts I did not understand. The biggest impact for me was making me aware of the range of tools I had not known existed."
