Welcome to Career Planning and Student Employment (CPSE)
at Charleston Southern University, where our mission is:
• To
provide career services to both students and alumni,
and to facilitate the process of connecting God-given
passion to skills and abilities through Charleston Southern
University majors. We endeavor to increase job placement
opportunities for students by partnering with businesses,
churches, and the Charleston Southern University community.
• To
assist students who qualify for work-study in finding
jobs that will allow them to earn money to help
cover the cost of their education, and to help students
develop job skills for future employment.
CPSE
can coordinate recruiting and job placement needs electronically
through our BucCareer Network. Not only can students and
alumni post résumés and search for positions,
but businesses, churches, and ministries may post job descriptions
and view the profiles of potential CSU candidates. First
time users just click on the BucCareer Network, select student,
alumni, or employer, and click on “Register Now.”
Businesses, churches, and ministries are invited to register
for our Fall and Spring Career Fairs, and partner with us
by participating in Mock Interviews, speaking at our Career
Planning Class, presenting during our Fall and Spring Career
Development Seminar Series, or recruiting on-campus.
Our Career
Center also offers CSU students the option to speak with
one of our CPSE Student Career Counselors (SC2).
SC2's are dedicated to helping current CSU students explore
career-related issues, promoting office services around the
campus, presenting various workshops to students on career-related
topics, and assisting with CPSE events. SC2 activities include
self-assessment interpretations, choosing a major, résumé building,
searching for internships, finding a graduate school, CPSE
web navigation, and company research.
We pledge to provide courteous and respectful service, timely
and accurate responses, a supportive environment, personalized
attention, sensitivity, and an appreciation of individual
differences. Our staff is dedicated to helping students be
successful!
