The Career Center can assist you with:

• Developing resumes, cover letters and thank you letters
• Finding and applying for internships
• Finding and applying for part-time or full-time employment
• Selecting or refining career objectives
• Interviewing guidance

We offer:

• Access from the Hofstra Portal to The Pride-Career Management System ("Pride-CMS"): view and apply to thousands of job and internship postings, management of letters of recommendation and event listings.
• Special event programming including annual Job & Internship Fairs and Career Series
• Weekly career-related workshops
• Employer information sessions and networking opportunities
• On-campus recruiting programs for all majors
