Welcome to Career Services!

We support all Saint Francis University students and alumni along their journey to Become That Someone by offering a variety of programming, career development, and exploration resources. Our services, which include individual appointments, are available on campus and online.

 

SFU has been named a 2023-2024 Career Development College of Distinction!

Institutions with a Career Development badge are in tune with the ever-changing job market and prepare students to meet demands through one-on-one counseling to search for a job; résumé, cover letter, and interview assistance to apply to a job; and comprehensive access to internships and other real-world experiences to prepare for a job. 


 

How Can We Help You?

Career Services educates students and alumni on their search process while offering opportunities and support for securing jobs, internships, further education, and other professional opportunities.  Additionally,  employers are encouraged to connect with Career Services to find the best way to recruit Saint Francis students.
