Partner With the CDC
The Career Development Center exists to help all students identify and achieve their career goals. Our mission includes counseling students on major selection, internship search strategies, graduate school applications, and job search skills. We also exist to support faculty members as they encourage students to identify and achieve their career goals. The Career Development Center is here to support you!

Graduate & Professional School Resources
Although you certainly know the faculty and programs in your area better than the CDC, we can ease your advising load by helping your students revise personal statements, find information about standardized tests, or elucidate the criteria they seek in a graduate or professional program. (Letter of Recommendation Tips)

Don't Cancel Class
If you have to be out of town for a conference or another obligation, your Career Development Center liaison will create a class according to your request on a topic such as careers in your area, how to make the most of a liberal arts education, the graduate school application process, or other areas you deem relevant.

Assessments
When you have an advisee who is struggling to define a goal for their academics at Richmond or life after graduation, suggest they speak to a counselor at the CDC about taking an assessment that can help them identify strengths and areas of interest.

Sharing Opportunities
The CDC utilizes an online database called SpiderConnect to let students know about a wide range of opportunities. We are always looking to expand this resource—when you receive internship or job postings in your field, please forward these on to your CDC liaison. Thanks!
