Career Center Message To All Graduates
Congratulations Spring 2017 graduates!
On behalf of Virginia International University’s Career Center, I would like to
recognize you for a job well-done!
To have accomplished this academic milestone, you had to have the courage to
leave the comforts of home, open your heart to meet new friends, and entrust
your vision to a community of devoted educators.
Once attending the university, you had to gain your academic footing, be willing to
spread your wings, and become actively engaged on the campus. Thank you for
allowing the Career Center to be a part of your growth! Whether you attended
the monthly-held professional development workshops, employer information
sessions, career fairs, on- and off-campus volunteer activities, or Career Center
Orientations, you were able to discover more about your strengths and identify
whom you are as a professional.
Now as you move closer to walking the stage to accept your degree, do not forget
to recall and share your VIU experiences with others. Apply the advice that you
received during the interview and résumé development sessions to secure your
dream opportunity. Each day carry into the workplace your personal branding
image of punctuality, positive attitude, team-spirit, and ownership to learn.
Should you ever require assistance from the Career Center to refresh your skills,
remember that our alumni are always welcome to contact with us! Let us
maintain communication via LinkedIn, Facebook, and the VIU Alumni Association.
All the best to you!
Career Center Department
