Career Services Update - week of November 28, 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 – Please click here for the latest job and internship openings.

* Housekeeping – The Career Services office will close at 11am tomorrow. I’m going on vacation and will be back on Monday November 21. If you have a resume emergency (or similar job related catastrophe) please feel free to speak with student affairs at ext. 243.

Have a great couple of weeks!
