Different employers use different methods to fill entry-level positions.
Many jobs are not advertised. Some employers only advertise or attend job
fairs. Still others use their networks of contacts and professional
associations to fill positions or just post jobs internally.
Employers also recruit at different times of the year. Many vacancies open
up in the spring and are unanticipated. Only employers who can anticipate their
hiring needs far in advance typically participate in our Recruiting
Program.
Before beginning your job search, ask yourself:
To determine which specific combination of job search strategies work
for you, we strongly recommend that you make an appointment
with a Career Advisor in Career Services. Appointments can be made by calling
646-2215 or visiting Career Services (63 South Main Street, 2nd floor of Bank
of America Building, use side entrance next to Nugget).
