Career Services Work

Graphic design support for student career development

Employment fairs, employer materials, and student-facing communications

Career Services supports SVSU students with career development—resume and portfolio reviews, mock interviews, and connections to employers through on-campus fairs and programs. As the graphic design intern, I produced print and environmental materials for these initiatives, including fair campaigns, partner communications, and event signage. Every piece follows SVSU brand standards for clarity and recognition.

Employment Fair Materials

Using SVSU's visual identity with new ideas

I was in charge of creating marketing materials, maps, and signage for several of the employment fairs held by our office. With the goal of attracting as many students as possible, I made sure to develop a visual style across multiple advertisements that was distinctly "SVSU", but also used aspects in new ways.

The business cardinal ("COOP") was a new graphic I commissioned based on previous COOP designs. Giving him professional attire and a dynamic pose helped educate students on what to wear, while also encouraging them to see themselves successfully networking with future employers.

Stickers

Official-looking, but still fun

Several sticker designs were created for Student Employee Appreciation Week, all rooted in SVSU branding while still tying into the theme of each year.

Social Media Posts

Student Appreciation Week posts

These posts promoted the transition to Workday for on-campus employees. Their lighter, more casual tone helped make a confusing system change feel more approachable and contributed to stronger student turnout in the office that week.

Employment Fair Signs

Valuing employer partners

Employer partners receive reserved tables near the front of each employment fair, accompanied by custom signs and table graphics I designed for their spaces.

Employer Partnership Program

Marketing materials for employer partners

Using SVSU's updated brand standards and colors helped these materials feel more official and more closely aligned with the university. I designed several handouts and presentation documents advertising the program alongside employer development specialist Heather van Sumeren.

The Road Map in particular contributed to a 10% increase in employers utilizing their benefits for 2025–2026.
