Career Services

Career services is offered through the College’s dedicated, full-time career services manager. Services include resume preparation, interview practice and support in the job search process. The career services manager:

  • Prepares and advises students on goal setting, job offer negotiation and career discernment
  • Advocates for students with health care employers
  • Guides students through the application process and job interview
  • Co-sponsors hiring events with the health system
  • Offers career education via workshops and on-line tools
  • Advises students and alumni on career advancement and graduate nursing education

Pre- and post-licensure BSN students are invited to contact career services for support offered through face-to-face or Zoom appointments, phone or email. Online resources include resume and cover letter samples, interview videos, and “how to” resources for conducting a job search.

Students typically self-refer to career services or are recommended to the office by faculty. Approximately 90 percent of BSMCON students interact with the career services office over the course of their program, above the national average of 59.6 percent.

Career services collects and reports placement data to the appropriate agencies. The College does not guarantee employment upon completion of the pre-licensure BSN program or post-licensure RN-BSN program.
