Lucy Billings-Jones, Career Coordinator

College of Liberal Arts

Welcome!

I have the honor of serving as the Career Coordinator to the College of Liberal Arts. As your Career Coordinator, I will assist in your career planning and job search from resume and cover letter preparation, interviewing, and networking skills to reviewing and negotiating the job offer.  I look forward to developing a solid rapport with such a diverse, yet distinctive area. Also, I welcome the opportunity to identify and evaluate your needs as they relate to your career endeavors. I value my job and the opportunity that I have to assist you with your career and look forward to working with you during the year. If you would like to schedule an appointment, please notify me by completing the Career Services Inventory.

Why You Are Important

Many employers know that a liberal arts education prepares students for thriving careers in many fields. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) surveyed employers across the country, showing that employers look for transferable skills, such as written and verbal communication skills, the ability to solve problems, and the ability to work well with others--skills which are characteristics of an education within the College of Liberal Arts.

Professional Profile

I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Criminology in 1998 and my Master of Science degree in Public Administration with an emphasis in Human Resource Development in 2000 from Indiana State University. During my professional career I have worked in student affairs, including housing, student life and judicial, admissions, and career services.
