About The Program
Career Compass is a unique workforce retention program in partnership with Florida Gulf Coast University. It connects students with employers across Southwest Florida through informational interviews, one-on-one mock interviews and networking opportunities.
Sessions are hosted at SWFL Inc. so students can meet with employers in a professional atmosphere and get the experience of a professional job interview.
