Careers in Business

Improve your resume writing and interview skills. UNB hosts an annual Fall Career Fair that brings many employers to UNB to recruit students for full time employment.

A business degree from UNB will prepare you for high-demand, high-paying careers in the business world. While the courses you take will help you gain the knowledge, entrepreneurial skills and experience demanded by businesses, UNB provides resources to help you choose a career path that is suited to you, and the support to help you get there.

UNB's counseling services and Career Connections website provide the resources to help you chose a career that suits your personality, interests, values and skills.

The Faculty of Business Administration provides the program options to help tailor your business program to the career that is best for you.

Full-time academic advisors are also provided by the Faculty to help you select the best programs and courses to help you reach your career potential.

UNB's Student Employment Services helps students prepare professional resumes and polish their interview skills, and organizes career fairs where students can meet with employers who are recruiting university graduates.

Students in the BBA program can jump-start their careers by enrolling in the Co-op program, which provides the opportunity for them to gain meaningful work experience while they are paid.
