Welcome to Career Services

Career Services is responsible for assisting Fort Lewis College students with several aspects of their professional development and for providing opportunities for interaction with potential employers.

Career Services provides professional skill building events and workshops including resume and cover letter assistance, mock interviews, job search strategies, class presentations, graduate school workshops, networking opportunities, and various career events held throughout the year. 


Skyhawks Job Source

A Resource for Students - This web-based system allows students to search for job and internship positions, post resumes and cover letters for employers to view. The system also allows students to apply for positions on-line. Students who upload a resume to the site will be included in candidate searches by employers and the career services coordinators. Students can keep track of and manage their job search activities as well.  In addition, they can update their profile each academic term, add new resumes, delete old ones, and stay current with programs and events such as workshops, on-campus recruiters, career fairs, and the Career Services Etiquette Dinner. Students can login to Skyhawks Job Source and get started here.  Instructions for using the site can be downloaded. 


A Tool for Alumni - Fort Lewis College graduates can also register to use this free online tool by contacting one of the Career Services Coordinators to create an account.  Alumni can login here once they have registered with us.

A Tool for Employers - The system allows potential employers to post a profile, post job and internship openings, search for applicants, and review resumes. 
Employers can click here to register and login.
