Career Services

The Career Services team is here to assist you during your time at Summit Academy OIC and beyond. Our Career Success Coaches will help you recognize where you are and how to take the next steps to achieve your goals. We celebrate the diversity of our student body and appreciate that each student brings a unique background, life story, and set of interests, skills, and goals.

Students & Alumni

Summit Academy connects students with employers searching for fresh talent. Before making the connection, we’ll work with you to make sure you’re prepared by helping you build a resume and a portfolio of work that you can show off with pride. You’ll also receive coaching on interviewing strategies from your instructors, in addition to actionable feedback from industry recruiters and local hiring managers who spend time with you on mock interview days. Our team is committed to connecting recent graduates and alumni with fresh opportunities.

Summit uses College Central Network as our official resume and job posting service.

Career Services provides students:

  • Resume Templates/Builder
  • Cover Letter Support
  • Interview Tips and Tricks
