Services

Career experts say that people will change careers five to seven times in a lifetime. That's why career management is an important life skill to develop and cultivate. Depending on the stage of the career you are in, your needs will differ. Career Outside the Cube offers specialized services for individuals in different phases of their career. These services are as follows:

Career After College

Suddenly, you find yourself out of the safe haven of the classroom, and thrust into the reality of finding your first job. Your whole life lies in front of you, but how do you decide what to do with it? Career Outside the Cube is here to guide, encourage and inspire first time job seekers. Our tailored services will help you identify your passion, skills and strengths, and teach you how to market your unique capabilities.

Returning To Work

Re-entering the work force after taking time off can be both scary and exhilarating. Depending on how long you’ve been away, things may have changed. If you’ve taken time off for a few months, you may just need to adjust to being spread a little bit thin for a while. If you’ve been away for an extended period, you may have to update your skills since you were last employed. Career Outside the Cube offers coaching to help individuals re-entering the job market identify their marketable skills, interests, values, and develop a plan to position themselves in the strongest way possible.

Changing Careers

Sometimes no matter how hard you try to do all the right things at work, you find that you need to make a change. Maybe the job is a bad fit, maybe volatility in your industry gives you anxiety about the future, or perhaps you finally have the opportunity to pursue your dream. The priority for candidates changing careers is how to most effectively translate their skills and experience into benefits for a new industry and employer. Our services for candidates contemplating a career change do just that.

Career Center Services

College career centers must focus on basic career preparation tactics such as skills and interest assessment, resume and cover letter preparation, and interview skills. With limited resources career centers have less time to spend time on broader issues such as networking and self-marketing strategies. Our workshops enable career centers to leverage their limited resources and add additional value to their students.
