Career Services at Eastern International College
The primary mission of Career Services is to coach, prepare, and support students and graduates to become the best career-ready applicants in a competitive and global work environment through educational and student learning experiences. Career Services collaborates with companies, area colleges, community partners, faculty, alumni, and staff to assist students with real-world experience to become work-ready and productive citizens. The staff of Eastern International College is committed to assisting graduates with achieving their career and educational goals.
At Eastern International College we train you for your future position in the workplace. We also teach you the skills needed to become a master at interviewing, aid you with job-readiness, and show you how to secure an entry-level position in the field in which you were trained. We guide you in how to obtain, maintain, and enjoy gainful employment.
Your journey begins at orientation. Our Director of Career Services will introduce you to what lies ahead and offer tips on how to stay focused and rise above your competition. The Career Services department is here to help individual students find their passion and aid them in discovering not only a job, but their career.

Opportunities: volunteering, externships and direct hire
The Office of Career Services works closely with our externship and student-life departments to offer assistance to students looking for volunteer opportunities, externships, and direct hire (full-time or part-time jobs) in preparation for their career goals.
Career Services offers many services to students and alumni. The office encourages students to register as they begin their programs and take advantage of the resources throughout their journey with Eastern International College.
Career Services does not guarantee placement
We do have an extensive database of employer partners and leads for all programs. Employers and guest speakers visit the college to interview students for permanent and temporary employment during recruitment days and job fairs. Job fairs take place in April and October of each year, and recruitment days are set up throughout the year depending on our employer partners’ needs. Career services are available to graduating students and every effort is made to assist each graduate in obtaining gainful employment; however, EIC does not guarantee placement.
Talent management assistance for our employer partners
Our Career Services Department looks forward to aiding all of our current and new employer partners with their talent management. We currently have a variety of qualified candidates to fill your vacant positions. Our students and alumni are trained within our Dental Hygiene, Nursing, and Diagnostic Medical Sonography programs. Career Services also offers mentorship and guidance to students if you desire that additional assistance. We are dedicated to helping you find the “perfect fit” with our talented and knowledgeable student graduates and alumni.
We would also love to partner with you in “Educational Partnerships” through our externship and clinical experiences. If you enjoy giving back to your community and sharing your extensive knowledge as an expert, we have guest speaker opportunities.
