The Career Services Office endeavors to learn about various job listing sites, publishes a hand out, and posts address lists frequently. Anyone searching for a job should make a habit of checking the various job listing services at least once a week, and should respond promptly to advertisements. In addition, job listings are perhaps the best source of information about future career prospects.

Obviously, job listings are not the only way to connect with potential employers.
