Partner with the CDC
We hope you’ll collaborate with us to help students explore career opportunities. Here are a few ways we can work together. Call us today!
Career
Liaisons
In order to best assist students in each academic department, the CDC
operates using an academic liaison model. There is a CDC
staff member assigned as career liason who specializes in
the career needs for your college. We will coordinate with you on activities
and events for your academic department.
Class
and Group Presentations
CDC staff are regularly invited to present in academic classes and at
various campus organization meetings.
If you are interested in having a career staff member come speak to your class or present to your campus group, contact the career liaison for your college. We would be happy to create a career presentation specifically for your group. Examples of class and group presentations:
Careers for Math Majors
Career Options with a Sociology Degree
Preparation for Law School
How Internships Can Lead to Career Success
Resumes for Marketing Majors
We can also arrange for professionals to come to speak to your class about career and academic opportunities.
Internships
In the CDC, we work proactively to help students explore internship
options to supplement their academic education. These
experiences can be critical for students as they pursue academic and professional
pursuits.
We facilitate internship experiences in a number of ways:
For the academic programs that require internships, we work directly with the faculty, college internship coordinators, and students to support internship development, vet internship sites, prepare candidates for the experience, help students learn strategies to be successful, and assist with post-internship activities including evaluation.
For other students who are exploring internship opportunities, the CDC advises them on the benefits of such an experience and helps students explore options, search for possibilities, and take the steps to secure positions.
The CDC also coordinates a number of university-wide internship opportunities that can provide valuable experience for students in all academic programs including internships with The Washington Center and the Disney College Program.
If you have any questions about internship opportunities for your students, contact your college’s career liaison.
We’ll
Take Your Class
Going to miss a class? Don’t cancel. Let us cover for
you. You can choose the type of presentation you’d like us to provide,
or with enough advance notice, we can provide a tailored career presentation
according to your field and specifications.
Jobs
and Internships with EMPLOYOLA
Let us know about jobs and internships that come into your department
so we can post them through our EMPLOYOLA
Job Board. We’ll return the favor by
letting you know when employers are looking to hire students from your
particular department.
On-Campus
Interviewing
In order to facilitate the hiring of Loyola students, the CDC often brings
employers to campus to interview students for jobs and internships.
Faculty and staff promotion of these events is critical to their
success. We rely on you to help us spread the word about
interviewing opportunities at Loyola and encourage student participation.
We also hope you’ll join us as a host when employers come
to Loyola for these visits.
Resume
Referrals
Resume referrals are just one of the many services the CDC offers to employers.
When an employer asks for a resume referral, we examine student resumes
uploaded in the EMPLOYOLA system based on employer qualification guidelines
and send them a resume packet of suitable students. This often takes
place before an employer comes to campus for on-campus interviewing.
