Career Success services
From the initial step of exploring different career pathways all the way to assisting with job offer evaluations – and everything in between – we offer a comprehensive range of services for our students.

Jobs and internships
Use Handshake to search for job and internship opportunities, connect with employers targeting UCSC students and alumni, find professional development events, and make appointments with a career coach.

Career planning timeline

Specialized career coaching services
We personalize our coaching to your needs, whether you are looking for an internship, a volunteer experience, have questions about grad school, or are ready for your first industry job!
