The 2008-2009 Career Success Guide is hot off the press and ready for students in SUL 349. The Career Success Guide serves as a hands-on guide to take students through the job search and recruitment process and is fully integrated into Purdue University Calumet’s career development and planning program. Students at other universities rank guides such as this as their most useful resource for career planning, job placement and on-campus interviews. New updated resumes, information on business correspondence, and professional work experiences are just some of the additions to this year’s guide.
