What is Career Advising at USM?
An opportunity to discuss how your academic and personal interests, abilities, and values relate to career fields, no matter where you are in your exploration process. Our goal is to give you the knowledge and skills you need to make future career and life decisions.
The Career & Employment Hub office is located on the second floor of the McGoldrick Center for Career & Student Success, Suite 210, Portland campus. Appointments are also available virtually via Zoom or phone!
