Alumni
Having trouble finding a job after graduation? Looking for a new job? Changing your career direction? We provide job search advising to engineering alumni from the Colleges of Engineering and Earth and Mineral Sciences.
As an alumnus or alumna, you can:
- Utilize a variety of Penn State and external job search resources to find available positions
- Get assistance with updating job search documents, including résumés and cover letters
- Participate in career events held throughout the academic year, including networking receptions, fairs, and employer information sessions
- Connect with other alums through a variety of engineering alumni organizations and/or the LinkedIn College of Engineering Alumni Group.
You can also give back by volunteering to help current engineering students through our Mock Interview Program. As a mock interviewer, you can help students learn useful interview and self-presentation skills. Your contact information will be given to a student who is seeking job opportunities in your field of work or a related field. The student will contact you to arrange a date and time for the mock interview.
Most mock interviews are conducted by phone or by Skype.
