Nick Edwards , Guided Career Advisor at Hardin-Simmons University in Abilene, Texas, shares how he has scaled career services for Hardin-Simmons’ 1,100 students as a team of one. Nick’s strategy relies heavily on the use of technology—in particular, uConnect’s virtual career center platform—to offer more resources to students and make them available whenever (and wherever) students need them. “My approach is all about finding tools that will help me work with students smarter, not harder, and that will ultimately help serve the unique needs of all the different students we have,” Nick says. Nick also prioritizes faculty partnerships to embed career resources and conversations into syllabi, curriculum, and more. As Nick says, faculty are “on the front lines” and know students’ aspirations, capabilities, and goals better than anyone. Nick also networks and coordinates with career services professionals at other institutions in Abilene. As a team of one (and being relatively new to career services), he likes to be proactive about professional development and staying on top of trends and new ideas in higher education career services. Nick and the other teams also occasionally collaborate on regional career fairs that benefit all of their students. In this episode, Nick shares: How he uses technology to scale his reach and impact How he decides what tech to invest in (given his limited time and resources) How he partners with faculty, staff, and employers How he balances all of his competing priorities and decides where to spend his time as a team of one How he staves off the overwhelm and sets boundaries And more Resources from the episode: Nick’s LinkedIn profile Nick’s email: nick.edwards@hsutx.edu Hardin-Simmons’ virtual career center Join the Career Everywhere Community today: careereverywhere.com/community…

When it comes to student engagement with career services and resources, business schools are a different beast. First, most students enrolled in business schools (especially those in graduate programs) have specific goals and expectations around post-graduation outcomes. As a result, they often require more frequent and specialized engagement with career services. Second, it’s no secret that rankings and reputation play a critical role in the success of every business school. Career outcomes directly influence both of those things, which is why many business schools have their own career centers and leverage their own relationships with employers, faculty, alumni, and more. In this episode, we talk with Toni Rhorer of the Rady School of Management at UC San Diego and Gene Rhee of the Lundquist College of Business at the University of Oregon about how they’ve scaled engagement with career services. Toni and Gene share tactical strategies about: How they get buy-in from faculty to embed career development into curriculum How they partner with admissions (and use outcomes data) How they use technology to make resources available 24/7 How they leverage student clubs, alumni, employers, and more for large-scale programming How they’ve turned 1:1 appointments into personalized, high-value sessions And more Resources from the episode: Toni’s LinkedIn profile Gene’s LinkedIn profile Rady School of Management’s virtual career center (powered by uConnect) Lundquist College of Business’ virtual career center (powered by uConnect) Join the Career Everywhere Community today: careereverywhere.com/community…

We try to really question how we can target and tailor our resources in a way that, to some, sometimes feels like we are providing more resources to some students. And that's because we are. We recognize that some students need more support or need different support, and that's part of what career equity is,” Dave says. In the episode, Dave discusses: How his team defines career equity (and why it’s so important) How his team is working to improve career equity (including several specific strategies) Why he hired a Director of Career Equity and Access on his team Why his team launched their annual Career Equity Conference (and what it entails) What results his team has seen How they measure success And more Resources from the episode: Dave’s LinkedIn profile Dave’s email: dmerry@suffolk.edu Suffolk’s career center website Employer DEI toolkit Director of Career Equity staff page Career Equity Conference webpage Labor Market Insights tool (powered by uConnect) Opinion piece from Dave in USA Today about employers and workplace equity Join the Career Everywhere Community today: careereverywhere.com/community…

Michele Doran and Melanie Murphy of Denison University share how their team built the Journey Program , a popular two-day workshop that helps sophomores with early career exploration. The Journey Program includes four 90-minute sessions designed to help students explore careers, think critically about what they want out of work and life, and come up with a plan to make it happen. The four sessions include: Reflect : Students look back on all the things they've done in high school and their first year of college and think about what motivates and fulfills them. Imagine : Students start thinking about how they might want to live their lives—beyond career. Where do they want to live? How important is money to them? What does wealth mean to them? Where might they want to live? What kind of time do they want to devote to the things they care about personally? Plan : Students think about how they're going to use their time at Denison to build the skills, values, and habits that will help them achieve their goals. Build : Students start creating a roadmap for their plans. They work on resumes, cover letters, and other essential building blocks of a strong career. In the episode, Michele and Melanie share what the Journey Program entails, why they created it, how they built it, what the results have been, and more.
