What is Virtual Career Studio?

The Virtual Career Studio is housed within the Career, Leadership & Transfer Pathways Canvas. Current Brookdale students have an opportunity to engage in open discussion boards, review career development modules, and reserve appointments to virtually meet with a Career Peer Mentor.  Career Peer Mentor appointments can be made to learn about career exploration resources, resume reviews, interview preparation, leadership skill development, job searching strategies, and internship search assistance.

Who are Career Peer Mentors?

Career Peer Mentors serve as a resource for students who would like assistance and guidance with career exploration (utilizing online resources such as Occupational Outlook Handbook, O*NET, and FOCUS 2). Career Peer Mentors are also trained to assist students with resume reviews, interview skills and mock interviews, and general information about careers, the Career, Leadership & Transfer Pathways department, etc.

How was the Career Studio funded?

The Career Studio was funded by the Community College Opportunity Grant! This generous funding from the state enabled our department to create a new, updated space for career peer mentoring, career exploration, and internship/job search assistance.
