Career Launch Programs

Job Foundry Hub's Career Launch Programs are free, structured resources that walk you through every stage of the job search process. Think of them as the career office your university should have had.

What Career Launch Programs Include

The Job Search Playbook — A step-by-step guide covering how to organize your job search, where to look, how many applications to send per week, and how to track your progress. Most graduates fail in their job search not because of lack of effort but because of lack of system.

Resume & Cover Letter Workshop — Written guides, templates, and before/after examples that show you exactly how to translate your academic experience into professional language that hiring managers respond to.

Interview Preparation Series — Practice question banks, answer frameworks (like STAR method), and guides to every interview format you'll encounter: phone screens, video interviews, technical assessments, and behavioral panels.

Salary Research & Negotiation Guide — A step-by-step framework for researching fair pay, evaluating total compensation packages, and negotiating professionally without jeopardizing the offer.

First 90 Days at Work — Most career resources stop at the job offer. This guide covers what to do after you start: how to build relationships quickly, establish your reputation, and set yourself up for early promotion consideration.

Who This Is For

Career Launch Programs are designed for any recent graduate or final-year student who is actively searching for their first professional role. They are also useful for anyone returning to work after a gap, or career changers entering a new industry for the first time.

All resources are available free of charge. No signup required for guides. Create a free account to save progress and access personalized job recommendations.
