Career Services for Alumni

How We Help Alumni

As an alum of Salem State University, you have access to all the services and programs offered by career services free of charge for the first year post-graduation. We encourage you to begin by making an appointment to evaluate your needs and how we best can assist you.

The programs and services offered by career services include individual advising, workshops, and resume, cover letter, interviewing, internship, and job search support.

In addition to leveraging career services resources, the ability to connect with 65,000+ Salem State alumni is a great network for you to cultivate for your job search. Contact alumni relations for more information.
