Some of the areas where the College of Business and Technology's Career Services office can be of assistance include:
- Job Search: There are many job search strategies out there; many times job seekers feel as if
they are juggling 20 balls at once. Some of this phenomenon has been created by technology,
which has fostered the development of a plethora of job boards and online resources
for those seeking employment. For a list of job search techniques, read Job Searching During a Recession and Job Searching 101.
