Job Search Sites for Alumni

A good job search strategy utilizes diverse methods. Online employment sites provide a great starting point, but do not rely on them exclusively! Networking and applying to organizations directly remain among the most effective job search strategies. For assistance with your job search, please call 610-436-2501 to schedule an appointment.

COLLEGE CENTRAL NETWORK

West Chester University uses College Central Network as its official resume and job posting service. Students and alumni may create free accounts to access job postings, resume critique and referral services, and on-campus interview opportunities: http://www.collegecentral.com/wcupa/

Alumni are eligible to participate in on-campus recruiting up to one year after receiving a WCU degree. It is up to the discretion of the employer to determine if a particular position will be open for student applicants only or if alumni will also be eligible to apply. Alumni are expected to adhere to all Student OCR Policies in order to remain eligible to participate.
