College Career Centers

Colleges and Universities see GRN Coastal’s College hire program as an extension of their internal programs. They are delighted to have us working with them to help their students secure their first professional role beyond college. They welcome our assistance.

GRN Coastal has partnered with dozens of Colleges and Universities all across the United States. We have business clients in every major market in the country. We have established working relationships directly with Career Placement offices and Athletic Departments. Together we work to find top talent….. top positions. Our U Edge program designed especially for graduating seniors helps your students get a job…quickly.

GRN Coastal would like to give your student athletes the competitive Edge they need to succeed in the job marketplace. We would like to become a Service provider and Advisor to your University. We will not only work with the athlete’s one on one as their advisor but we can also connect them with our client’s one on one. Although everyone wants to play professional ball, the reality is that very few will have that opportunity. That is when our Athletes Edge program can become a real asset to your program after the games are over.

We can provide the following services to each student and athlete as part of our program:

Resume critique and enhancement ideas as needed
Social media career impression job –start review
Career Coaching discussions and hotline
Career Connections and job search services

We are also available to come to campus and present our solutions in person to a group of athletes for a separate engagement fee. These presentations can be in workshop fashion or seminar. Individual pricing is based on audience size and time allocation. Content can include but is not limited to:

“WOW. Thank you so much! We work so hard every day as students to strive towards our goals and attempt to reach our dreams. It is people like Mr. S who make those dream come true. GRN Coastal establishes a professional as well as a personal relationship and you feel a true willingness to help. Not only was I treated in a very respectable manner, the hospitality I received made me feel like family.

My resume looks amazing and is very attention grabbing. I have got nothing but compliments about the changes Mr. S helped me with. I can see why a candidate with this format will win the job, but it doesn’t stop there. Once locking in an interview, Mr. S would follow up with me and ensure I was prepped for each step of the process. He kept me a step ahead of the game and it allowed me to out-shine others in competition for the same position. I cannot thank Mr. S enough for all the time and effort he put towards helping me begin my professional career!”
