Dear students,

We hope you are having a smooth a transition to remote learning! At the Ovadia CP&P Office we are working remotely too, and are able to assist you with your career planning needs. Our access to our FIU work email and Symplicity remains the same, and we are working during regular business hours for you just as before.

We encourage you to continue uploading your application materials onto Symplicity for us to review, and to search for/apply for jobs/OCIs/Resume Collects as you normally would. Re: OCIs – while we are not holding any interviews on campus at this time, we hope you will continue to bid so that we may collect/submit your applications for interviews to be arranged directly with the employer.

We ask that you reach us via email, as we have limited telephone access. If needed, however, we can arrange telephone/video meetings. Should you need to reach one of us individually our information is available here.

We hope you stay positive, safe, and healthy!
Best,

Ana, Randee, Jessica, and Erika
