Career Services Update - week of December 5, 2005!

* Congratulations – Heather Onorato has accepted a full time position with Dawson, Smith, Purvis & Bassett. Heather will work part-time during tax season and move to full time after graduation.

Steph Pelotte has accepted a position at Tax Pro in Skowhegan for this tax season. If it works out Steph will stay on after graduation.

If you want to share an employment success story please email me.

* Job Hunting – If you’ve ever met with me to discuss resumes you’ve probably heard my two minute speech on cover letters. If you haven’t, here’s a chance to learn more. The Wall Street Journal has a great article on the importance of an interesting cover letter. If the former CEO of Pizza Hut uses a concise one page cover letter you should too.

* New Job Openings – A couple of great opportunities to talk about this time. Kennebec Savings Bank is looking for an IT Support Technician to work part-time in Augusta.

The Central Maine Growth Council is dedicated to helping the economy in Central Maine. The CMGC is looking for a Development Project Assistant. This is a paid internship slated to begin with the council’s move to Downtown Waterville the first of the year.
