Career Services Launches New Online Resource
Posted 1/4/2006
The Office of Career Services has announced the launch of a new online system that provides students, alumni, and faculty with powerful new tools for identifying, applying for, and tracking internship and career opportunities.
This new service, called CareerBridge, will empower students and alumni to actively manage their search for internships and full-time, part-time, or seasonal jobs by placing at their disposal the following features:
In addition, this new system enhances the ability of faculty and administrators to quickly and easily track important outcomes for students and employers, including numbers of jobs and internships posted, applicants per job, and reported hires. During the coming year, additional new features will be added, including an online campus recruitment scheduling module and an events planning module. It is the intention of the Career Services staff to soon provide faculty with administrative access to the system in order to more easily manage internship relationships, track student progress, and maintain a secure online record of notes, documents, and learning contracts.
The student link to CareerBridge can be found at the Career Services website, www.hartford.edu/career. The employer portal is at uhaweb.hartford.edu/career/emplrlinks.htm. Members of the University community are encouraged to spread the word to students, employers, and alumni about this new and significant addition to the University’s portfolio of career services. Questions can be directed to John Kniering, director of Career Services, at 860.768.4287 or kniering@hartford.edu.
