My visit to the career center was a nice easy going venture. I learned there are a quite a few opportunities for those in the mechanical engineering field. I found a lady by the name of Julie Collier who's there specifically to help ECS students. She's the career counselor and co-op coordinator for the department.
There was actually an ECS career day that they hosted on March 6th to provide an opportunity for current students to meet with industry members about possible employment. When I get closer to graduating, it will definitely be an event I'll look into for job opportunities. I'm sure the nice people at the career center would give me a list of the companies attending so I could prepare myself in advance.
More interesting was that they directed me to the ECS career center website. It gave a good rundown of all the things they could do for me. There is a lot. Everything from co-op and intern positions to setting up a practice interview to brush up on interview skills.
All in all, it was a very pleasureable and reassuring experience.
