Students sometimes miss Career Centre appointments, preventing others from registering. Limited appointments often mean long wait times. To ensure fairness and efficient use of resources, an attendance policy is in place.

If you have any questions or concerns about the Career Centre's attendance policy, please contact the Career Centre at career@yorku.ca.

• Individual appointments begin promptly at their scheduled time.
• If you arrive late for your designated appointment time, you will be given the remainder of your appointment time only.
• Prior to your appointment, take the time to become familiar with our Keele Campus location at 202 McLaughlin College.

To ensure that Career Centre services are available to all students who need them, the following appointments may be booked:

• up to six resumé/cover letter feedback sessions per academic year, with a maximum of two appointments per week up to six Career Counselling appointments per academic year
• up to two interview practice sessions per academic year, with a maximum of one appointment per week
• up to two job search advising appointments per academic year, with a maximum of one appointment per week

There is no limit to the number of workshops you may attend.

If you miss three individual appointments (without cancelling before 9 a.m. on the day of the appointment), you will be unable to book appointments with the Career Centre for the remainder of the term.

For one-one-one appointments:

Please provide 24 hours’ notice to cancel a one-on-one appointment. You will receive a "no-show" on your account if you cancel after 9 a.m. on the day of your appointment. After receiving three “no-shows,” you will be unable to book Career Centre appointments for the remainder of the term.
