ÌýGuidance for International Students


Due to current economic conditions and present government regulations, finding permanent employment in the United States has in recent years become challenging for international students. In light of these circumstances, the Career Development Office recommends that international students conduct a global career search by seeking jobs in the U.S. and in countries where they have long-term work authorization.

The Career Development Office supports all students by identifying job search sources, connecting them with Boston College alumni whenever possible, and developing strategies for linking them with companies that may have offices in their home countries. In addition, our team will assist students with their interviews and in the preparation of their marketing materials.
