Nancy is a graduate of the Dominican's Counseling Psychology program and brings a strong background in college career counseling, recruiting, marketing and the healthcare field. Amy Kohn is our intern this year. Amy is studying Career Counseling at San Francisco State and also brings a wealth of counseling experience. Now not only will jobs be listed at Bertrand, employers can elect to list with us on-line and contact students directly with openings that fit their background. Students, after registering, can search for jobs or internships both locally and nationally on-line.
Extracurricular activities are extremely important to employers.
Some of the ways you can become involved include taking a leadership role in a student organization, volunteering for community service, and becoming a member of a student or professional organization. More businesses hire students with experience in their field than those who have only coursework, no matter how brilliant a student they may have been. Internships offer a variety of benefits, including a taste of the field you are studying. Interns have the opportunity to learn not only what they like to do but what they don't like to do as well. Knowing yourself better helps you to make better career decisions.
