Job fair brings employers to the employees
 |
| The Richardson Police Department were among the employers who attended the recent job fair at Collin College | Sixty employers recently spent part of a day at Spring Creek Campus meeting students, receiving resumes and taking applications for part- and full-time jobs. More than 500 students and 150 community residents visited for the Job Fair 2008 hosted by Career Services and Cooperative Work Experience with Student Life.
Along with our annual job fair at Collin College, there are other employment resources for students and community seeking part-time work while in college or more permanent work following graduation. E-recruiting is a web-based job posting service provided through the Career Services and Cooperative Work Experience department (CSCWE).
Students currently enrolled at Collin College or graduates are eligible to use e-recruiting by first visiting one of the career centers and setting up an account (for future use). Staff at the career center will assist you in this process. One of the extra advantages of this resource is that once you have an account, you may access the jobs from other computers.
Employers who post positions with our Job Location and Development office also describe how to apply for their jobs, and applicants follow their instructions regarding jobs of interest. Resumes may be uploaded into this system for employers to review. According to the Coordinator of Off-campus Employment, Elaine Stewart, at any given time there can be as many as 400 active jobs.
The Dallas Morning News employment advertisements are available to anyone at the Spring Creek Campus via the Job View Kiosk, near the flagpole entrance. Users may view and also apply for jobs there. At the Preston Ridge and Central Park campuses, job seekers may view the kiosk employment listings on the career center computer desktops.
In addition, recruiters come onto our campuses regularly to talk with students. UPS is a frequent visitor as are many restaurants. There are bulletin boards on each main campus where CSCWE posts employment flyers. If you are seeking a summer job, a part-time job to continue your income through college, or a longer term position, check out these opportunities.
For further questions about e-recruiting, contact 972.548.6747 (Central Park Campus) or 972.881.5781 (Spring Creek Campus) or 972.377.1781 (Preston Ridge Campus).
