The Career Services Department helps our students to prepare for a successful professional life and securing employment in their field of study. At The PJA School, we recognize that a rewarding career requires more than just technical skills and knowledge, it requires an attitude that will set you apart as someone who is reliable, works well in a team and communicates effectively. Career development starts early on in every program both in the classroom and through one-on-one support from our staff and faculty. These traits are reinforced in all interactions between students, faculty and staff and in problem solving that involves real world business situations.

Well before students are ready to graduate, the Career Services Department provides support for a successful job search. Assistance is provided with development of a resume and cover letter, interview skills, and identifying leads through a variety of sources. You will also benefit from the network of employers who know that PJA graduates are well prepared and can contribute from the day they begin work. Through the years, PJA paralegal, accounting and business graduates have been highly marketable to traditional law firms, large corporations, small businesses, government agencies and employment firms.

Support with the process and the reputation of PJA provide no guarantee for success. In a competitive job market, landing the right opportunity will depend on your effort, initiative, and flexibility. Working together you will soon be on your way in a new career.
