Creating pathways to career readiness
By viewing your career as an overflow of your calling, which is about your relationship with God and His plan for your life, you can be more confident in the path you choose.
Our Career Services team strives to nurture the student’s divine design and empower them to successfully create a pathway between academic growth and career readiness.
Our goal, in collaboration with our SEU community, is to prepare our students for meaningful post-graduation academic and professional success.

Here are just a few ways Career Services helps our students and graduates find both jobs and personal fulfillment in their careers. Contact Career Services to start your internship or job search.
Practicing interviewing skills prior to going on one cannot only help students get a job, but also increase their confidence in their abilities to present themselves well, and discern whether a potential employer is a good fit for their personal goals.
Career Services hosts presentations on professionalism regularly so that students always put their best foot forward. Students are educated on the skills and posture needed to successfully enter their career fields.
Whether it’s from volunteering, mission trips, study abroad, internships or work experience, many things students do prior to graduation will help them in the future. Career Services helps students see how the skills developed from these opportunities can either translate into a career, or help them in their field. Knowing both will help determine if, and how, that experience should be listed on a resume.
Employers, pastors, and human resources representatives come to campus to recruit students who are looking for internships, part-time work while still in school, or full-time careers after graduation.
Every fall, we host a Church Expo event on campus to connect students with local churches and ministries. This is not only a great opportunity to connect students to community and ministry, but also to promote job and internship opportunities.
Handshake is a national job network specifically for college students and recent alumni.
Through Handshake, students and alumni can directly seek internships and job postings. Employers connect with us through Handshake to post jobs, internships, and interviews. Employers can also search for and connect with our students and alumni. Please contact the Career Services office at careerservices@seu.edu or 863.667.5157 for more information.
We help students explore career choices through conversations and identifying available resources and tools. Students are equipped with potential action steps to help them discern their educational and professional choices.
The Career Services team provides practical tools and resources that help students and graduates to live out their gifts and abilities. One of the biggest ways Career Services does this is by helping students recognize and grow their transferable skills, since many employers aren’t as focused on grades and majors as they are on real-life experience.
Career Services has career liaisons dedicated to each of the colleges within SEU, who are not only familiar with the majors available in each, but what alumni are now doing with those degrees.
Each spring, Career Services hosts a weeklong series of events designed to boost a student’s knowledge of the working world and how to get started in it.
Career Readiness Badging is a collaborative, university-wide program that is designed to aid students in gaining — and communicating their experience with — the skills needed to drive their careers. Students will be able to obtain competency-based micro-credentials within 10 major competency categories. These categories are recognized by employers, churches, and organizations across the country. The program is designed to help students articulate the skills and knowledge that they are already developing in SEU’s curriculum (through academic programs and courses), co-curriculum (via student leadership and activities), and in extracurricular experiences (such as jobs, missions, athletics, internships, etc.). Throughout the badging program, students will also cultivate the development of new skills and knowledge and gain mastery they have not previously been able to demonstrate.
