Parents
The Career Development staff is invested in helping your son or daughter with every aspect of career planning! With face to face counseling and a variety of Web based resources, our services span four years of career development and beyond. We hope you will encourage your student to visit us for assistance with self-assessment, career exploration, job search skills, and on-campus recruitment opportunities. Visit our services for students page to find out more.
Parent Mentoring Program
As a parent and working professional, you possess invaluable knowledge and experience that can benefit your son's or daughter's classmates. In return, your son or daughter may have an opportunity to benefit from another student's parent. This program will allow you to share your unique career insight and expertise with aspiring students. Here is how you can help:
Job Shadowing
Allow a student, who is matched with your career area, to spend a portion of your workday with you. This would allow students to experience a typical work day of a professional in his or her chosen profession.
Informational Meeting
This is an opportunity for a student to discuss your career and ask for your opinion on how they may best pursue a similar career.
Internship/Job Opportunity
You may post internship and/or job opportunities with the Career Development Center to be viewed by all students. Please contact Christopher Pinault, Assistant Director of Career Development at christopher.pinault@salve.edu.
Parents may determine how they wish to be contacted by students, and may set a limit on the number of contacts per semester.
