At the Dallas Institute campus host on-campus employer visits throughout the year with companies that are interested in hiring our graduates. Even before you graduate, you are encouraged to use these events to make contacts with hiring managers, and to begin honing your interview skills and researching the key attributes hiring managers are searching for in new employees. We offer career placement assistance and personalized career plans for students from day one.

At Dallas Institute, we offer workshops on resume writing, networking, interviewing skills, how to use social media, and much more.  At DIFS, we look at each student as an individual and we help craft career plans according to their needs.  Our main goal is to give every student the tools and skills necessary to get their careers started and assist them throughout that process!
