The New & Improved Skyhawks' Job Source
A Resource for Students - This web-based system allows students to search for job and internship positions, post resumes and cover letters for employers to view. The system also allows students to apply for positions on-line. Students who upload a resume to the site will be included in candidate searches by employers and the Career Services coordinators. Students can keep track of and manage their job search activities as well. In addition, they can update their profile each academic term, add new resumes, delete old ones, and stay current with programs and events such as workshops, on-campus recruiters, Career Fairs, and the Career Services Etiquette Dinner. Students can click here to login and get started. For instructions on using the site, click here.
