Scott Borden

I currently serve as a General Advisor for the Office of Career Exploration & Success (CES) meeting with all undergraduate, graduate students and university alumni. Additionally, I manage CES’s graduate Clinical Career Counseling Intern program and recruit, train and supervise graduate student interns interested in career advising. Previously, I served as Director of the Road to Wall Street Program and Program Director for the Road to Food, Animals, and the Environment, where I oversaw industry focused alumni-student mentoring programs preparing students for various targeted careers.

I have worked as a Career Counselor, Instructor, Counselor Supervisor, and Consultant in Higher Education at Rutgers University, Princeton University, and The College of New Jersey. Additionally, I maintain a private career counseling practice specializing in adults in career transition and in student career development. Previously, I was an Operations Manager for a trading division of a Wall Street Brokerage firm.

I have a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Finance, and a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Counseling Psychology. I am a NJ Licensed Professional Counselor, National Certified Career Counselor, a National Certified Counselor, Distance Credentialed Counselor and NJ counselor trainer and supervisor.

Educational and career development is a life-long learning process. Seek out mentors and university advisors to gain information, access, exposure and experience to effectively make decisions to build your way forward. With your effort, motivation and talents, and a little help along the way, you can design the career and life you would like to live. The CES Office is here to help!
