If you’ve not done so already, you need to come up with your Job Search plan. If you are a College Senior, you should have this in place already (and be active in your search). If you have not yet made a plan, why not start now? Previous posts on this site cover the major points of a plan (two of which are):
- College Seniors, are you Organized for you Job Search?
- Winter Break – Do You Have a Job Search Plan Yet?
Today’s College related links follow below.
- AfterCollege – “Find the Job you want” is this site’s tag line. The site has a very clean interface on it’s main page and suggests a very simple approach: Find your school, join your network, Access exclusive jobs/events OR quickly search over 200,000 jobs (sounds like a lot to me). From the main page you can set-up an account and profile, find your school, search for jobs (with very flexible search parameters), or do a quick search. The page lists featured career networks, featured employers and “browse popular jobs”. A quick search returned over 100,000 jobs, 93 intern jobs and 136 co-op jobs.
- JobDoggy – An interesting name (not sure how it ties to site’s focus), the site’s tag line is “Part-time jobs for teens, college students, and high school students”. The main page offers job search, job articles, “how it works” and an FAQ. The resources section is split between College Students and High School Students/Teens with job search, part-time jobs and seasonal jobs. Clicking on these links provides a wide range of additional resources.
- SummerJobs – It may sound a bit early for Summer jobs, but it’s not. Absent Intern positions, a summer job looks good on your resume (employers will ask what you did with your summers). The site has featured employers and a quick search function on the main page (there were over 500 jobs when I checked). You can register on the site and have access to additional tools. The jobs range from camp counselors to cartooning instructors. Take a look.
- Crossroads – This is The Association for Computing Machinery, Inc’s student magazine. The main page offers a vast listing of company links to Co-op and Intern programs (too many to list here). There is also a careers page which offers additional resources.
Good luck in your search.
