Placement assistance is different from guaranteed employment. EIT supports graduates through the job-search process but does not promise a specific salary or employment outcome.

Career Planning and Placement Assistance Services at EIT

EIT’s career planning assistance addresses application materials, job-search techniques, interview prep, and establishing employer connections.

Resume and Application Support

A strong resume shows employers what you know and what you’re trained to do. EIT helps graduates prepare resumes and application letters that showcase their education and qualifications. Depending on your program and background, we’ll help you demonstrate the technical or hands-on training you’ve received, any certifications or field-specific skills, and your previous work experience.

Interview Preparation and Mock Interviews

EIT provides job-searching and interviewing techniques to help graduates better understand how to approach employers, discuss their skills, and respond to common interview questions. Interview prep also coaches students to think through how they will explain their technical training to hiring managers with different educational backgrounds.

Employer Connections and Job Leads

Through our employer network, we provide graduates with job leads and help them secure job interviews, giving you the opportunity to demonstrate your new resume-writing and interviewing skills.
