How It Works

The FSC Career Guarantee is tailored for first-time, first-year college students. Students enroll in the program during their first year and follow a four-year sequence of career preparation activities. Highlights include:

• Year 1 - Build the foundation by meeting with Career Services, setting up a Handshake account, and completing the Internship Ready course.
• Year 2 - Explore career interests through informational interviews and continued engagement with Career Services events.
• Year 3 - Dive into leadership roles, complete internships, and refine career goals with targeted strategies.
• Year 4 - Execute the plan by applying to jobs or graduate programs, completing mock interviews, and showcasing a competitive resume or CV.
