Hello and welcome to Alumni Career Services!

I believe every person’s career journey is unique. My non-linear career path has involved both planned and unplanned twists and turns. The common thread? All the experiences helped me clarify what truly aligned with my values and the type of work to which I wanted to dedicate myself.

Our team of career professionals and I are available to support you as you navigate your career. Working from an integrated approach that is tailored to each person’s goals, our strength-based counselling approaches include narrative, solution-focused modalities that are grounded in contemporary career development theories.

We can assist with a wide range of concerns from exploring career options, facilitating self-understanding, decision making, dealing with workplace situations, and can employ a variety of standardized career assessments, such as the MBTI and the Strong Interest Inventory.

When you’re ready to job search, we can support you in developing competitive applications, an effective job search strategy, and teach you how to succeed in your interviews.

I encourage you to engage with our array of services to help you build your career.

Sincerly,

Jillian Perkins-Marsh (she/her)
