Career Events on IPFW Campus

National Career Development Month is celebrated in November! What a great month to take time and evaluate your career direction, interests, and past employment. Thanksgiving is just around the corner and it’s a natural time to look at blessings and develop yourself, so why not do the same for your career?

IPFW Career Services has been celebrating National Career Development Month for 4 years now and every year we try something different in effort to reach many majors, career interests, and student demographics. This year we have a host of workshops and panels to aid students with families, seniors, business majors, and all you go-getters! We even have a fun event for anyone just wanting more information about our office and of course, FREE FOOD!
