Career Services

Marshall Undergraduate Career Services offers a wide selection of workshops each semester, all designed to keep you informed and build the necessary skills to succeed in the job market. Topics include how to write an effective resume and cover letter, networking, interview preparation, internship and job search.

Marshall Undergraduate Career Services offers Marshall and Leventhal majors the opportunity to schedule one-on-one career advising appointments, no matter where you are in your career journey. We will work with you to develop an individual career strategy, share available resources and show you how to prepare for the different recruiting and networking activities on campus. Whether you are exploring different job functions and industries, preparing for your first internship interviews, or you are excited about negotiating a full time job offer, we are here to support you!

Our Peer Career Advisors (PCAs) are also available for one-on-one advising. PCAs are seniors who have completed a highly selective internship and they are organized into three teams: Investment Banking, Consulting, and Generalists. They offer assistance in resume and cover letter review, internship preparation and search along with building networking skills.

Every year, Marshall Undergraduate Career Services offers several signature programs that help you explore your career options, connect with working professionals, or begin executing your career strategy. We also collaborate with Marshall student organizations to provide industry-specific workshops, panels, and treks. Further information on these opportunities is made available in our weekly newsletter. Event schedules are available in Handshake.
