    • Appointments and Walk-in Wednesdays

    Students and alumni can schedule an appointment with the Office of Career Planning on Handshake at http://joinhandshake.com.  Go to the “Career Center” menu and schedule right online!

    Walk-in Wednesdays is an opportunity for students and alumni to stop in to our office and meet with a staff member without a prearranged appointment. We host walk-in hours between 12:30 and 4:30 p.m. on Wednesdays in Albany and Troy.  Sign in here during those hours at www.sage.edu/walkins, and a staff member will reach out.

    Career Guides

    Resume Tips

    Here are additional tips for your resume:

    Career Exploration

    Some students arrive on campus with an idea of what they wish to major in and do as a career, and others arrive ready to explore their potential majors and careers. We offer the Focus2 Assessment platform to all students.  You can access it by going to www.sage.edu/focus2.  Please contact us  for the  Passcode.

    You can also visit: What Can I Do With This Major and www.onetonline.org to explore careers.
