Welcome to University of Utah Career Services!

May I talk to a counselor?
Yes, in fact you already have an assigned counselor. If you click on the menu item Find Your Counselor, you will be able to see the contact information.

We can help you with resume review, interview techniques, job-search strategies, and more!

Where are you located? Is there a fee?
We are located in 350 Student Services Building. Our services are free to University of Utah students and recent U of U graduates.

Registration is not just for seniors, but is beneficial for all University of Utah students. Your registration will allow you to access the protected job postings and resources in the UCareerLink system.

What is UCareerLink?
Career Services uses a database system called UCareerLink which helps students and employers to find each other. It also lets Career Services communicate with you about events such as career fairs, job postings, and interview schedules. This is where you can upload your resume and cover letters for employers to view. It is also where you access additional electronic tools and resources behind that login. Register now!

How do I access job postings?
You must register with Career Services to access the degree-required jobs for graduating seniors in the UCareerLink system. Off-campus job postings for students are accessible by simply choosing Jobs from the menu items and then Student Jobs & Internships.
