At the start of this semester, Career Services Center announced that we teamed up with College Central Network to provide students with a more convenient way to search for jobs! I’m excited to report that thanks to some great marketing and to the continued work of our staff, we now have over 700 students registered!

These students have access to over 126 employers, over 245 jobs announcements, and the ability to post their resumes online for immediate and first hand contact. Additionally, employers who have posted jobs using our service can search through registered students who have posted their resumes and contact them directly for interviews regarding part-time, full-time, and seasonal jobs, volunteer opportunities, and internships.

This is an excellent tool for our students to get that extra edge they need to connect to the jobs of today and to help establish direct contact with employers who have been vetted through our offices. We encourage you to share our Career Services Center Job Search page and to send your students to us to assist them with their job search! Our qualified and experienced staff provide one-on-one appointments focusing on topics such as job readiness, job search skills, resume writing, interview preparation and more. We can help students learn how to research companies they are interested in working for, find the jobs they are seeking, and explore possible career paths.

For more information about other services we provide such as Career Fairs, Employer Site Visits, and Employer Panel discussions, please contact us at skycareers@smccd.edu or at (650)738-4337.

Thank you and we look forward to continuing to provide access to job readiness, career exploration, and employer connections to Skyline College students with your support.
