Client Spotlight: Georgetown University Career Education Center
The Georgetown Career Center (GCC) facilitates job and internship searches and raises career awareness for over 8000 Georgetown students and alumni. Some students feel that the GCC’s primary focus is on business and pre-professional students. Hilltop Consultants focused on ways to reduce this perceived bias. Our two goals involved discovering methods of increasing earlier utilization of GCC services, and of marketing service offerings to all student career interests. Results from school-wide surveys and focus groups helped us to gauge both perception and use of services. Our central recommendation was for the GCC to implement an extensive internship program for Georgetown students. These interns would act as unofficial liaisons between the student body and the GCC, encouraging more one-on-one conversations between the GCC representatives and students.
