Explore Careers

The Career Center has seven career clusters to support the diverse interests of Boston College students. Each cluster will provide you with a community of like-minded peers as well as specialized coaching, services, and resources to support you on your journey.

Discover Opportunities on Handshake

Handshake is BC's official career platform where you will apply for jobs/internships, find events, and more. The key to success on Handshake is completing your profile—80% of students who complete their profile get messaged by an employer.

Find Mentors on Eagle Exchange

Eagle Exchange is an interactive virtual platform that fosters connections between students and Boston College alumni. You can use Eagle Exchange to build your professional network, ask career-related questions, find alumni mentors, and more.

BC named among Forbes' New Ivies.

The Ivy League is forfeiting its standing as America’s producer of great talent, while a cohort of ascendent public and private universities, including Boston College, is emerging as the academic institutions employers rely on for new hires, according to Forbes’ listing of the “New Ivies."
