UGA Career Center Services for Alumni

The UGA Career Center offers many invaluable resources and events for alumni. Whether you’re looking to grow your professional skills, revamp your resume or change job paths, the UGA Career Center is here for you.

For example, alumni can still access DAWGLink and take advantage of career counseling by making appointments at the Atlanta Alumni Center in Buckhead. Appointments can include resume critiques, mock interviews and advice on job search strategies and networking.

This summer, the Atlanta Alumni Center will host a series of summer workshops titled “Finding a Meaningful Career.”

Director of Alumni Career Services Bethany Mills will provide activities to navigate career exploration. These sessions will be both informative and interactive. Attendees will use the Strong Interest Inventory and the Myers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) to consider how their interests, personality, and values affect career satisfaction.

Each session costs $65 per person and includes coffee, snacks and two career assessments. The dates are:

June 16
June 23
July 7
August 4

Space is limited to 12 alumni per session; so register today!

Are you no longer in Athens or Atlanta? Have no fear, the UGA Career Center is here for you, too! Career Center staff members frequently host lunchtime webinars for alumni across the country.
