The University of Arizona’s Career Services offers a variety of services designed to assist future educators to implement their career plans and gain employment. We recommend that you develop an active self-directed job search, in addition to participating in our on-campus services. As a candidate, your job search should include developing targeted resumes and cover letters and self-initiated direct contact with school districts of your choice. To assist with this, Career Services has resources to help you prepare for your job search and to help you explore school districts. Career Services also has professional Career Counselors available to help you. Please call 520-621-2588 or stop by the Student Union Memorial Center, Suite 411, to schedule a career counseling appointment.
