Appointments are scheduled for 50 minutes. To make an appointment in either St. Paul or Minneapolis call (651) 962-6761.

"Pop-In..." (No appointment necessary)

Have a quick question you'd like to ask of a career counselor but don't have time to set up an appointment? Just "pop-in" to speak with a counselor at your own convenience. Feel free to stop by for resume help, cover letter suggestions, interviewing tips, help finding job and internship listings, or any other career related questions you'd like to ask.

Pop-In availability varies in both St. Paul and Minneapolis. Please call our office at 651-962-6761 for a schedule.

Pop-Ins on the Road

We have regular Pop-in hours around campus. All majors are welcome at each location. Look for "Pop-Ins on the Road" in our events calendar for locations, dates and times.

Seminars and Workshops

Throughout the year, seminars related to career planning, job search, and other work/life concerns are offered to students and alumni. Faculty may request class or club visits from our staff who will gear the presentation toward the interests of the group. Visit Seminars & Events for a schedule.

On-Campus Interviewing

Each year employers visit St. Thomas during fall and spring semesters and interview hundreds of undergraduate students to fill a variety of internships and full-time jobs. To participate in On-Campus Interviewing, students are required to attend an Orientation to On-Campus Interviewing. Visit our On-Campus Interviewing page or the On-Campus Interviewing FAQ for more information.

Career Resource Center

The Resource Center in St. Paul functions as the hub of the Career Development Center and contains volumes of information to assist students and alumni with their career needs. Hundreds of publications are available for use on a variety of topics such as career options, major fields, employing organizations, job search strategies, and career management.

The Resource Center has four computer workstations for student and alumni use as well as a printer, copier, and wireless access to the UST network.

Online Resources (Information Central)

The Career Development Center offers many resources online such as job and internship postings, career development links, and a network of alumni and professional contacts just to name a few. Many resources are free for public use and may be found within Information Central.

Students may schedule an appointment with a career counselor to learn more about utilizing Information Central.

Mock Interviews

Mock interviews are provided so that students and alumni may practice their interviewing technique with a counselor. The sessions are recorded and then played back so that the counselor can offer feedback. Learn more.
