Career Advising for Alumni

Our mission is to help you find post-graduate success. We’re proud of our students who get hired before graduation but realize it might take a little time for you to land your first job. The UW-Green Bay Career Planning & Professional Connections team offers the following resources to UW-Green Bay graduates.

First Destination Survey

Are you a recent graduate? Let us know how you're doing! Our graduates' responses to the First Destination Survey are critical for Career Planning & Professional Connections, academic departments, and the University. This information allows us to determine changes in the job market, the graduate degrees our alumni pursue, and where alumni are employed after graduation. The information you provide is confidential — results are not published in a personally identifiable manner.

6 Months of Free Service

Alumni of UW-Green Bay are provided six months of free services following graduation. You must have graduated from UW-Green Bay to receive services—attending UW-Green Bay without completing a degree does not qualify. Our staff will verify graduation.

Longer than 6 months? One freebie, then $50/hour

If the six-month period has passed, we offer a one-time, no charge appointment with a staff member. After the one-time free appointment, alumni can register for additional services by completing and submitting the Alumni Registration Form, with the applicable fee, to the Career Planning & Professional Connections office. The fee is $50 for an individual one-hour appointment with a staff member.

Workshops & Job Fairs

Career Planning & Professional Connections offers a variety of workshops, programs and job fair events that are available to alumni. Exceptions include Mock Interview Day, Dine Like a Professional Etiquette Lunch and the Career Closet. See Workshops & Events.
