Cost for Services
If it has been more than 1 year since you graduated from USC, the fee for alumni career services is $40 per hour, which alumni will need to pay before meeting with the alumni career coach. (If you
graduated within the past year, see Recent Graduate Status above.) One-hour career coaching sessions may consist of planning a career change,
reviewing a resume, developing a job search plan, networking techniques or conducting
a mock interview.
If you are a member of the USC Alumni Association, you will receive three (3), one-hour coaching sessions per year as a part of your membership. If you are not a member and would be interested in joining, please click here for more information.
