Career Counseling

In order to assist Drexel students with selecting majors and setting appropriate educational and career goals, the Steinbright Career Development Center offers individual career counseling appointments. As part of the career counseling process, career assessments are also available. The purpose of the assessments and subsequent interpretation is to help students:

  • clarify their interests as they relate to majors and career choices
  • understand how certain personality factors affect career decision making and selection
  • identify their motivators and preferences in order to make a better match between personalities and work settings

Students and alumni interested in further details regarding these assessments offered may click here.

Additionally, we offer counseling and guidance regarding career exploration and job search strategies. These topics include resume writing, interviewing behavior, networking, job/salary negotiation, employability skills, and the world of work.

Individual appointments are available to undergraduate students of all majors and class years, as well as graduate students and alumni. We believe that career development is an individualized, ongoing process that evolves over a lifetime at a pace geared to the person making the journey. The process doesn’t have to be difficult or ridden with anxiety.

Schedule an appointment with a career counselor by calling the SCDC at 215-895-2185.

Undergraduate and graduate level students and alumni in the College of Nursing and Health Professions and the School of Public Health located on Drexel’s Center City Health Sciences Campus, call 215-762-7577 for an appointment with a career counselor.
