General Business Career Resources

Below you will find career and professional development resources for General Business majors. It is essential that you proactively engage career development as an integral part of your entire SXU experience. It is crucial to start early and integrate meaningful opportunities into your student experience, such as internship, volunteer and leadership opportunities.

Remember that your major is just a starting point and not a prescription for a narrow list of employment opportunities. By immersing yourself in your liberal arts education and gaining experience outside of the classroom, you have the opportunity to develop transferable skill sets highly desired by employers and/or graduate programs. Some of the skills that a General Business major will develop are active listening, persuasion, critical thinking, system analysis, complex problem solving, coordination, and judgment and decision making. Talk with Career Services to find out how to creatively market your major, skills, and experiences to various opportunities.
