Career Services

Welcome to Career Services!

Career Services helps UM-Dearborn students and alumni with career exploration and planning, job preparation, and job search skill development. We facilitate connections between students, employers, and the community by providing a wide range of events and guidance that help students. 

Please note that Career Services and The University of Michigan-Dearborn will be closed for the winter break on Monday 12/23 and reopening on Thursday 1/2. The Career Services team will not be responding to emails or phone calls starting the afternoon of 12/20 as our team works through communications before the break.

CURRENT STUDENTS
Explore this website for self-assessments, career guides, finding employment, and tracking industry trends. Schedule an appointment, submit your resume or cover letter for review, or let us know if you have any questions ([email protected]).

RECENT ALUMNI
Please note that you must email [email protected] to schedule an appointment (don't use the form linked in the button below). Please include

• some dates and times that work for you
• the topic you would like to discuss
• if you prefer a virtual or in-person appointment

If you would like to discuss your resume or cover letter and have started that document already, please include that document as an attachment to your email.

Resources for all alumni can be found on the "Alumni Career Resources" tab to the left.

RESUME & COVER LETTER REVIEWS

Career Services prefers to conduct the first review of a resume (or cover letter) during an appointment with a Career Coach or during established walk-in hours with our professionally trained Career Peers. Further review of an additional draft and feedback can be provided via online submission. Our goal is to return your individual review within 7 business days.

Due to the winter break the resume & cover letter online submission form will be unavailable starting at noon on Monday 12/16 to ensure the opportunity to return already submitted documents to students and recent alumni before the break. It will be reopened when we return 1/2.
