Discover how the UNC Career Center can help your job search

Welcome Undergraduate and Graduate Students!

As you begin your journey, we ask that you do the following:

  • Get started with the Focus 2 Academic & Career Planning Tool
  • Schedule an appointment with a UNC Career Center career coach to discuss your Focus 2 results and to establish your career development action plan, to include developing a resume
  • Log into Handshake and complete your profile. Handshake is our online portal which includes internship and job postings, details about company recruiting efforts, career fairs, workshops, employer contact information, and more. 

All students served by the Career Center have existing Handshake accounts which can be accessed by logging in with your ONYEN; please do not attempt to create a new account.

Graduate and professional students can also find additional information related to their career development here.
