Career Success During COVID-19The Baylor University Career Center wants to make sure Baylor students continue to work toward their career goals. A lot of graduating seniors across the country are worried about finding jobs, but there are more companies hiring and interviewing than most people realize. We are continually working with both students and employers to make strong connections towards internship and job offers. The best advice is to stay positive and to stay active in your pursuit of professional success.In the weeks since the COVID-19 started having an effect on Baylor and being on campus, our CSPs have had almost 600 virtual appointments with students looking for jobs, trying to get into graduate school, and searching for internships. We are hearing success stories from these students daily. Success stories like these: "I was accepted into
