Career Advising

 

Drop-in Advising Hours
Monday-Friday: 9:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
Tuesday evening hours until 8pm will begin September 22nd

Career advising and counseling is provided by a variety of staff members, including advanced doctoral and master's level students in counseling psychology and related fields. Before seeing clients, advisors receive approximately 40 hours of intensive training in the selection and use of career center resources. Our career advisors are prepared to listen to your needs, then work with you to develop a plan to reach your career goals. It is important to remember, however, that a career advisor can only act as your "coach." It is up to you make your career plan a reality.

Career advisors provide two types of services, both free of charge.

  1. Career advising is provided on a drop-in basis. Simply sign in at our advising desk in the Career Center Library (room 1200 in the Dunlap Success Center) and a career advisor will see you as soon as possible. During academic semesters, Career advisors are available Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Tuesday evening advising hours will return in September.
  2. Individual counseling appointments are available at select times. These appointments are reserved for clients with the most need and are provided at the discretion of the Career Center. Clients may be asked for permission to record the session for the supervision and professional development of the career advisor.

During the fall semester, drop-in services at the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering are also available.
