Career Services

Welcome to Career Services at MSVU! We’re open year-round to help all students and soon-to-be-graduates — up to 6 weeks after convocation — explore their career path. Feeling uncertain about your program choice? Need to update your cover letter or resume? Some support for your job search would be helpful? Applying to graduate school or internship? We can help you find your way.

We are open Monday to Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. from June 1 to August 31) in EMF 141.

Career Counselling is part of MSVU Counselling Services. To book an appointment with a career counsellor, email counselling@msvu.ca, call 902 457 6567, or visit the Student Services desk at EMF 108 (below the library). Appointment types include career indecision, resume and cover letter review, part-time, summer, or full-time job search; interview coaching, graduate school or internship application, and Strong Interest Inventory assessment.

Appointments are available Monday to Friday in person, by phone, or by video via Jane App.
