Job shadowing is an opportunity to gain valuable exposure to a career you are interested in pursuing after graduation. Job shadowing has many benefits, including:

  • Gaining a better understanding of the work environment and the skills required for specific occupations
  • Understanding the relationship between what you learn in class and what you will experience in the workplace
  • Networking with professionals in your field
  • Seeing day-to-day tasks
  • Learning more about what it takes to be successful from someone working in that field
  • Discovering additional career opportunities you had not considered

Career Services is here to help ensure you have a smooth, quality job shadowing experience.

  • Job shadowing does not take a lot of time, most job shadow experiences are completed in one day.
  • Career Services has a variety of employers already committed to our Job Shadow Program.
  • Career Services will assist students in finding the best employer to meet your interests.
