Career Planning

Keep active with your career plans

Do-it-yourself career planning steps Use the ACSSS career planning process to help you determine your future career plans.

Informational interviewing Yes, you can do informational interviews remotely! People may find themselves with a bit more time or flexibility in their schedules so don’t hesitate to reach out.

Networking Reach out to your current network, develop new contacts, and touch base with someone you haven’t been in touch with for a while.

Use LinkedIn If you don’t have a profile, this is a great time to develop one. If you have one, now’s the time to update it.
