Victor Handl, Manager/Director, nesevo U.S., says: “Gwinnett County provides a diverse talent base to reflect our global presence, excellent access for international connection, and a very strong tech-industry foundation.

Between classes and campus activities, there is one place that Georgia Gwinnett College (GGC) student Ashley Vega, ’26, who is studying cinema and media arts, makes sure to stop by—GGC’s Career Services.
“Career services has been an incredible resource for me,” she said.
Dr. Roslyn Brown, director of Career Services, said that it’s a one-stop place for students to prepare for life after graduation: “We are one of the few such departments that truly provides career counseling and coaching, along with career advising.”
GGC’s Career Services also offers career coaching and development workshops, a career resource library, and The Merri M. Brantley Professional Attire Closet, where students can borrow career-ready attire. Vega notes: “They supported me with access to business attire, ensuring I was prepared and polished for professional events,” Vega said.
Students like Vega can take advantage of the many services offered, including graduate and professional school assistance.
Brown says: “We help students who plan to attend graduate school with preparation for taking standardized entry tests, like the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) and Occupational Therapy/Physical Therapy (OT/PT) shadowing.
With the array of available services, students can set one-on-one appointments for graduate school assistance/career counseling, attend career fairs and career development workshops, and stop by for quick questions. Students can also get assistance with their resumes and cover letters. There is even a photo booth where students can obtain professional portraits.
Ultimately, GGC Career Services wants students to achieve success, with one caveat, Brown says: “We talk to a lot of students, and many times, their parents, and remind them that we are not a job placement center,” she says. “We provide the resources to help students get job interviews. That’s our goal.”
Brown adds that along with coaching students on what to do, she also guides them in what not to do. That includes not being late for an interview and not having an outdated LinkedIn account. “We offer mock interviews to help students gain confidence in how they present themselves and communicate professionally with potential employers,” she said.
For Vega, Career Services has helped her prepare for life after graduation. “Take advantage of the services and courses that Career Services provides while you can,” she says. “It will definitely take you into the right direction towards your career goals.”
