The campus community is invited to attend the Fall 2005 Job and Internship Fair from 1-5 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 13, at the University Student Union. More than 150 employers are expected to participate in the annual event coordinated by the Career Development Center.

Organizations representing a variety of fields including accounting, law enforcement, marketing, engineering, teaching, finance, sales and healthcare will be in attendance. A partial list of attendees includes Amanecer Community Counseling Services, Argent Mortgage, BP, California Department of Toxic Substances Control, City of Long Beach, City of Los Angeles, ConocoPhillips, KTLA-TV, MTV Networks, and the Peace Corps. Employers will seek students interested in entry-level career positions as well as internships and part-time employment.

In the weeks leading up to the job fair, the Career Development Center will offer a series of workshops to help students prepare a marketable resume for job searches, learn effective interviewing techniques, and successfully navigate their way through the job fair. After the fair, job seekers may sign up for interviews to be held at the Career Development Center with employing organizations by logging onto BeachLINK.

Faculty and staff are requested to share this information with students. For further information, contact Phyllis Milani at 562/985-8461.
