USP Career Services
Introduction
The USP Career Services is a satellite career unit catering to the career needs of USP students.
It is committed to supporting students at every stage of the career development process, from when they first enter USP as freshmen to their transition as USP alumni. In recognizing the value of early exploration, the USP Career Services adopts an open and personalised approach with a focus on active engagement with students, industry partners, and alumni. This involves initiating discovery of students’ self-awareness and career desires, understanding industry partners’ recruitment needs and inviting USP alumni to share career insights. We seek to help students make informed decisions about their future, be it planning for a career in the private sector, the public sector, non-governmental or non-profit organizations, to being their own entrepreneur or pursuing postgraduate studies, by providing them with comprehensive and individualized resources and counsel to support their career aspirations.
Making Connections
The USP Career Services organizes networking events, career mentorship and recruitment talks for students to connect with organizations such as research institutes, multi-national companies and small medium enterprises, involving alumni and industry partners to create platforms and opportunities for USP students in their exploration process. We also facilitate sharing sessions on pursuing postgraduate studies. We strongly encourage students to draw on these resources as the exposure to wide and varied areas will help to open up new dimensions for their career development and future planning.
