“The SPDC provided me with a strong foundation to begin and effectively follow through with my job search. As an English major, your skills lend you the ability to pursue a variety of career paths. But, with this flexibility comes a need to effectively prioritize areas of interest. The SPDC was always there to help me match my skills with potential employers and mitigate some of the overwhelming feelings that too often accompany the job search process.”
