Whether it’s for a first job after college or a career change, the University of Mary Washington provides a range of resources and programs for taking the next step.
With a ground-level network spanning the I-95 corridor – stretching from Fredericksburg through the nation’s capital in Washington, D.C., to the state capital in Richmond, Virginia – UMW is uniquely positioned to assist government workers and contractors looking to stay employed in the area. Combined with an online support system made up of more than 45,000 alumni around the world, the connections are endless.
The University also will host a mini-conference on Thursday, May 15, from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Jepson Alumni Executive Center to help job seekers learn to effectively communicate their experience, craft compelling résumés and tap into resources.
