  • Resources and guidance to help you plan your career path

The goal of the Center for Career and Professional Development is to provide exceptional career services that will help Peirce College students set themselves up for success in the working world after their graduation. Our student career services assist students with guidance for writing resumes and cover letters that will capture hiring managers' attention. The hiring process doesn't end there, though. Great resumes and cover letters get you in the door, but only an impressive interview will land you the job. The Center helps Peirce students take the next steps in their careers by teaching them how to properly prepare for professional job interviews.

The Center also provides services for employers. Peirce College partners with many organizations across the region to support their workforce development needs. As a specialized institution with a primarily adult-learner student body, we boast a pool of diverse, academically prepared, and focused talent. Through our Signature Career Services, we offer many ways for employers to connect with Peirce students and alumni.
