Welcome, Alumni!
The Levett Career Center welcomes the opportunity to work with alumni throughout the year. Would you like assistance with your own career-related issues? Would you like to help current students?
We're here to help you
You may have changed direction with a graduate degree; you may be facing life-changing issues such as dissatisfaction with your current job, relocation to another geographical area, or job loss (click here for a comprehensive guide to surviving lay-offs). Whatever the reason, feel free to e-mail us at careercenter@hanover.edu. To reach out to staff directly, find our contact information here.
To help you navigate your way through your job search, here is a sampling of practical tools the Levett Career Center has to offer to help simplify the job search process:
-
-
-
HanoverConnect: This is our job search platform, which allows alumni to search for job openings posted by employers and to post their résumés for employers to view. Visit HanoverConnect to get started. If you don't already have a username and password, please get in touch with us to set up an account.
-
Career Fairs: Graduates of the most recent five classes are welcome to attend our career fairs, held annually in Indianapolis, IN. These exclusive fairs are co-sponsored by Hanover College and target seniors and recent graduates of liberal arts colleges in Indiana and Kentucky.
-
Networking tips and leads: We can provide you with a list of alumni in a specific career field or geographic area to help you network.
-
Résumé, Cover Letter, and other document guides: Résumé styles and formats can change frequently over time. Our Résumé Guide and Cover Letter Guide are updated regularly to keep alumni current on recent trends and standards. Go to Publications for links to our current issues and for recordings of recent workshops.
-
Résumé Critiques: Once a résumé, cover letter, or LinkedIn profile is updated, our staff is available to review it and offer editing suggestions. E-mail your documents as attachments for assistance, noting the position for which you are applying in your message.
-
Mock Interviews: After reading our Art of Interviewing Guide, it helps to practice those skills. Mock Interviews can be scheduled at the Levett Career Center or via video conferencing or telephone. This is a most helpful tool, especially if you haven't been interviewed in a while.
-
Tools to help you find your true interests and strengths: Often, what we do and what we LIKE to do are two different things. Career Center staff provide assessments that can give you insight you might not find elsewhere.
-
Tips for online job searches beyond the daily newspapers' classified ads: Career Center staff can help you plan an effective search strategy.

The Levett Career Center at Hanover College serves alumni at no charge. Whether you graduated last year, 5 years ago, or 50 years ago, whether you find yourself unexpectedly out of work, or you just want to keep your résumé current with the latest format. There is never a charge for our services - let us know what we can do for you.
We're here to help you make an impact by helping current students and fellow alumni
The COACH Mentoring Community connects Hanover alumni with students through flexible, meaningful mentoring experiences—including classroom conversations, career-focused interactions, and real-world guidance.
Building on five years of success from the original COACH Mentoring Program, the COACH Mentoring Community expands mentoring beyond traditional, long-term matches. It better reflects how students learn today and how alumni want to engage. Many opportunities are intentionally short-term, classroom-based, or focused on a specific career-related need.
Employment Recruiting: Participate in our Recruiter Visit Days and Mini-Fair Days events to recruit current students and fellow alumni to be your interns and colleagues. We invite you to share your open positions at your workplaces by posting them on our job board through HanoverConnect.
