Ferris State partners with Indeed to help students and alumni advance careers

Ferris State University is partnering with Indeed, the world’s leading job site and a top hiring platform, to help students and alumni develop the skills and knowledge needed for successful job searches.

Ferris State students and alumni can gain access to Indeed’s Job Search Academy through this collaboration, which is a free virtual training program that offers on-demand job search instruction and career planning resources.

“We are proud to partner with Indeed to enhance and expand career opportunities,” said Michele Albright, Ferris State’s Career Readiness specialist and employer liaison. “This forward-thinking partnership enables us to offer more comprehensive services to our students and alumni across the state and beyond.”

In addition to Ferris State’s career services and support tools, co-branded web pages feature Indeed workshops and webinars, a job search platform, employer profiles, a career guide, and salary resources tailored for students and alumni.

The Indeed Job Search Academy emphasizes five essential career skills: job searching, resume development, interview preparation, evaluating job offers, and identifying career direction.

The Job Search Academy also provides flexible, around-the-clock access to career guidance and resources - allowing students and alumni to pursue their professional goals on their own schedules.

The webpage for the collaboration is now available.
