Career Positioning

Career Positioning at Antioch College is focused on helping students advance themselves within particular communities of professional practice as they pursue their career goals, prepare for graduate school, develop applications for nationally competitive awards, or seek other opportunities that will enrich their undergraduate experience and early careers. The Cooperative Education (Co-Op) Faculty leads campus coordination of Career Positioning efforts using the students’ preparation and engagement in the Co-Op Program as a foundational springboard. Every four-year student is required to complete a minimum of three cooperative education experiences for graduation. Through co-op advising and coursework, students engage in creative resume development, cover-letter writing, interview practice, web-presence development, and social media techniques. Additionally, students explore multiple communities of professional practice directly through field experiences on co-op as they continue to identify and pursue their career interests and forge meaningful future pathways. Students work closely with their Co-Op Advisors throughout their time at the College as they apply for opportunities, document their accomplishments, and navigate towards a purposeful future post-graduation.
