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 strategies. For assistance with your job search, please call 610-436-2501 to schedule an appointment.

COLLEGE CENTRAL NETWORK

College Central Network is WCU's official resume and job posting service. Alumni may create free accounts to access job postings, obtain resume reviews, and make the resume available in a database employers can search. http://www.collegecentral.com/wcupa/

Alumni are eligible to participate in on-campus recruiting (a feature within College Central Network) up to one year after receiving a WCU degree. It is at the employer's discretion to determine if alumni will be eligible to apply. Alumni are expected to adhere to all Student OCR Policies in order to remain eligible to participate.
