Provide career-readiness support including résumé development, interviewing, professional communication, job-search skills, career coaching, and employment planning. Lead exit planning and graduate transition activities for students approaching completion and graduation. Provide graduate placement assistance, employment leads, employer introductions, follow-up, and employment verification support. Build and maintain relationships with local employers, community partners, and organizations that may hire Orion Institute graduates. Track student-service contacts, employer outreach, graduate employment activity, placement documentation, and required outcome reports. Work closely with admissions, faculty, program leadership, financial aid, and campus administration to support student retention, completion, placement, and satisfaction.
