Career Services

Career Services can help students with career planning including finding internships and jobs, creating resumes and cover letters, personal branding, interviewing and salary negotiation. We work closely with employers to develop internships and full-time opportunities for UW-Eau Claire students and alumni.

Handshake

Handshake is a powerful tool to find on-campus and part-time jobs, internships and full-time opportunities! Whether you are a student looking for a job, an employer needing to fill a position, or an alumni seeking a new career path or needing resume advice, Handshake is the place to get started. Log in today. 

Career Services Overview

Career Services offers a Canvas course with always available resources for students! Enroll in this self-paced course to explore resources related to resumes, cover letters, job searching, interviewing, and more.

Blugolds CAN (Career Alumni Network)

Are you curious about jobs that Blugold graduates have landed since crossing the commencement stage? We are too, so we've collected some examples in a database you can search by major. You can even connect with them and ask them about life after UW-Eau Claire.

Employers

The Career Services office makes it easy for employers to recruit Blugolds, post jobs and internships in Handshake, and attend career fairs. Find out how to hire a Blugold.
