California State Polytechnic University-Pomona’s Post

The best time to find a job after college is when you start college. At CPP, we’re here to make that process a bit easier. Cherrie Peters, lead career coach at the Career Center on campus, has helped all kinds of students at various stages in their college careers. She advises students to be proactive and to utilize all the resources CPP has to offer: scholarships, micro-internships, alumni mentors, and the Career Center. The most important piece of advice she offers is to start early. “Career planning really is a process — a process of elimination, getting to know what they value and what is important to them. It’s about making themselves career ready. Students know themselves best, so they have to create career readiness for themselves first.” - Cherrie Peters Read more about CPP’s Career Center: https://bit.ly/47GSy2N Register for the Spring Career Fair happening on March 1: https://bit.ly/3OK8kTX

I remember this event and the support the career center. It was the support from the career center that led to my part-time employment with Coca-Cola Bottling Company and later internship with General Dynamics before graduating. Take advantage of these opportunities. Go Broncos!
