Career Counseling
Career Counseling Services personnel offer
assistance to help BSC students make informed
decisions about career and educational goals, using a
variety of resources to explore possible careers. After
completing the self-assessment, occupational
information, interest inventories, and a Job Shadow
experience, the student will move toward selecting a
major.
Personal Counseling
Counseling is available to help students achieve
productive and rewarding experiences while attending
BSC. Personal counseling is a resource for assistance
with personal problems, maintaining quality mental
health, examining life goals, developing coping skills,
and establishing positive relationships. Referrals to
community agencies may also be arranged if necessary
or requested by the student. Students do not have to
have a "problem" to utilize a counselor; counselors are
available to discuss personal growth issues.
Employment Activities
Referral activities assist students, faculty, and
employers in developing a relationship for possible
student employment. These activities may include on-campus
interviews/informational sessions, workshops
on resume/cover letter writing, interviewing techniques,
or electronic job search skills. Placement statistics are
also available related to past graduates of BSC
programs.
To better serve BSC student employment needs,
the online career service system
Job Seekers Network
is available for students and alumni seeking employment with local,
regional and national companies. Students should also
consult with this office for assistance in finding part-time,
summer, or permanent employment. Students are
strongly encouraged to begin searching for employment
at least one semester prior to completing their program.
For assistance in these areas, make an appointment
at 701-224-5752. Office hours during regular semesters are
Mondays-Thursdays from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. and Fridays
from 8 a.m.-4 p.m. Walk-in appointments will be seen
based on counselor availability. Counseling & Career
Services is located in the lower level of the Student
Union.
