Undergraduate Student Success
The career center has been helping me ever since I arrived at Adelphi. I’ve taken advantage of almost all of its programs and it’s helped me land internships, develop business and communications skills, build my professional brand and grow my network. I still go regularly to review my résumé and my LinkedIn profile.
