Job Search Strategies

First, you’ll need to prepare an effective resume and cover letter.

Then, use the following resources to start searching!

• To learn more about job search strategies, contact the WSU Global Campus career advisor by completing the Request Career Advising form.
• A Job Search Strategy group can help get you started. These groups allow students with similar career interests to share resources and discuss their experiences throughout the process. They provide a great way to get support and stay motivated! Contact the WSU Global Campus Career Advisor at cmiller66@wsu.edu to discuss forming a group.
• Participate in On-Campus Interviewing.
• Register for Handshake, WSU’s employment resource website for students and alumni.
• Need experience through an internship? Find internship information on the WSU ASCC website.
• Attend a career fair! Watch for information about Virtual Career Fairs on our Global Connections website.
• To find employers for particular occupations by city/state, go to CareerOneStop, Select Job Search, and use the Find a Job feature to specify a location and a job title, to identify employers and their addresses in a specific city.
• Don’t forget to network.
