Questions and Answers
How is the library helpful for job searches or choosing a major?
The books in our library offer a wide variety of assistance to students in various stages of their education and/or job search. When students are trying to figure out what their interests are in order to choose a major or types of classes to take, many of the books provide valuable information regarding educational requirements and academic areas to focus on.
Other details commonly found in the books address general job duties/responsibilities, work environment, person-environment fit, salary information and other important areas of interest. This information is not only useful to students trying to decide on a major, but also to those currently in the job search process. Other books that are useful during this process deal with résumés and cover letters, interviewing, job searches, etiquette and professional attire. We are constantly working to keep our library up-to-date with a variety of resources.
