Junior Year

• Establish a LinkedIn profile and start to selectively add connections; clean up social media sites from your earlier college days if you have not yet done so
• Research internship opportunities and determine if a for-credit internship fits into your course schedule; remember that internships do not necessarily have to be done for academic credit
• Continue to conduct informational interviews
• Update your profile and search for internships using Purple Briefcase
• Meet with your career advisor to update your resume, create an effective cover letter, and practice for interviews
• Attend career expos and related events to see what organizations are growing and actively recruiting college graduates
• Research graduate and professional schools early if you are considering pursuing an advanced degree after graduation; become familiar with application timelines and admissions tests
• Finalize plans for a summer internship; complete paperwork if you are completing for academic credit
