As a college-bound student, you're almost certain to meet a career advisor if you haven't already. Part counselor and part cheerleader, these helpful pros make a job out of, well, other people's jobs. They're usually employed by colleges or graduate schools and work at the career center, helping students with some seriously important life business: deciding what to be when they grow up. (Along with schools, career advisors might also work at government offices like unemployment agencies.) They're expert resume-reviewers and interview coaches, offering tips to help job candidates show off the best versions of themselves. To succeed in this role, you must be able to listen well to what your clients want from their career, but also strategize about what might be a realistic fit—it can be a tough balancing act if, say, a student struggling with science wants to go pre-med. You'll also need to maintain close relationships with local companies for two reasons: They'll be giving you the regular scoop about open jobs or internships, and you can invite them to career fairs (a.k.a. large events that allow job-hunters to learn about many organizations all at once).
