CAREER ADVISING

Welcome to Career Advising at RVU

At RVU, career planning begins at admissions and continues through medical school. Career advisors work collaboratively with students to answer questions and concerns regarding the career decision-making process. Individualized career counseling sessions help students select specialties, create CVs and ePortfolios in their pre-clinical years, and prepare for audition externships, interviews, and residency during clinical years. Students are directed to useful resources to achieve professional goals and develop meaningful careers.

Adapting to difficult situations even when it is challenging.

RVU-Career-Advising_Equity-and-Inclusion

Analyzing the ethical and moral issues related to diversity, equity, or inclusion present in complex health care.

Mutual respect, collaboration, and the open exchange of ideas advance mutual goals and facilitate individual growth.

Seeing every patient as an individual, frame communication with respect to diversity of learning styles, varied individual communication abilities, and cultural differences.

Through active service, we support one another and seek to meet the needs of the larger community, with a willingness to be engaged in the needs of others, the organization, and the self.

Even as a professional it is impossible to 100% perfect 100% of the time. Being late for a couple meetings does not mean you are no longer dependable when you've already shown it. Demonstrating dependability means:
Consistency, Timeliness, and Manageable attitude.

It is important to show others that you have the career-ready skills to do your job. Here's some activities that can develop and demonstrate those skills: Volunteer, Leaderships, Research, Interviewing, Networking, Clinical Competency.

Delivering new and creative ways to provide healthcare education while consistently demonstrating compassion, integrity, and excellence.
