Career Services Update - week of April 24, 2006!

* Congratulations New Hire! – Jenna Veilleux has landed a Behavioral/Handicap Specialist Internship at Care and Comfort in Waterville. Jenna will work this summer with special needs children.

* Shake Hands With The Governor – OK – It’s time to announce who will be meeting with Governor Baldacci on Friday. Drum roll pleeeease……. Nikki Irish and Shannon Smith. Both Nikki and Shannon are working at least 20 hours each week and have completed internships along with maintaining very high GPAs. Everyone who applied was deserving – I’ll consider a van for next year.

* Job Hunting Tips – If you’re looking for work you’re probably doing some of your searching online. Should you post your resume online? How should you send your resume? Is your privacy protected? The Wall Street Journal’s Career Section has a nice article dispelling some of the myths of job hunting online.

* New Job Openings – I had these on last week – but they’re worth another spin.

The Chief Medical Examiner for the state of Maine has an internship in their office for the summer.

The Maine State Bar Association needs a Program Coordinator for the summer (this is a “job” as opposed to an internship). This has a marketing focus dealing with the association’s continuing education seminars for their membership (keep in mind a potential law student would also benefit from having this on their resume too)

Both of these positions can be found on our jobs posting website. They will not be viewable until the system updates at midnight (like you needed another reason to stay up…). If you have any questions about either of these positions please let me know.

Occupational Health Research in Skowhegan has openings for a Form Developer and a Software Support Specialist.

Have a great week!
