| Abstract | Black college students are using career services more than any other group, yet they are not experiencing the same rate of college completion and post-graduate employment success as their peers, even as these outcomes are associated with accessing the resources offered by career services. While Black students are using career services, there is little information about the help they receive or if this assistance is sufficient to meet their needs.?This study sought to examine how Black students viewed the role of career services in their career and professional development and the factors that prompted them to engage with the office. The researcher conducted a hermeneutic phenomenological inquiry (HPI) to answer the following research questions: (1) How do Black university students view the role of career services in their career development? (2) How do Black university students view the role of career services in their professional development? (3) What factors drive Black university students' decisions to engage with the career services office? Ten students between 18 and 23 years old who identified as Black, and West Indian/Caribbean, African or African American participated in semi-structured interviews. The researcher used a critical interpretive lens to conduct a thematic analysis of the data by incorporating the hermeneutic circle. Black students engage with the office when they seek clarity on connecting coursework to the job market. Furthermore, they have a need and desire for support on how to navigate the workforce as young professionals from a historically marginalized group and do not view career services as a resource for this information. These findings suggest that career services offices should offer professional development interventions on how ethnic and racial identities intersect with the career and job search. The interventions can help Black students to navigate any real or perceived barriers in the workforce. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
