SERVICES FOR ATHLETES
The Career Center strives to provide the highest quality comprehensive career services to all varsity athletes at the University of Delaware. Keeping in mind that athletes have extremely demanding schedules and can’t always attend university wide events or career fairs, services for athletes such as individual or group career counseling appointments, workshops, networking nights, athlete resume book participation, interview preparation, shadowing opportunities, blue events, etc. are planned in ways in which athletes are able to attend.

"Our athletes need to be thinking ahead; they need to be thinking about ways to gain experience in their field of interest to see what it actually entails. They can shadow someone at work for a day, or do an informational interview to gain more knowledge about a day in the life of an employee or what steps that employee took to get there”...
