Graduating students can contribute to the report via the link in the personal email they received or can contribute directly to the report by visiting: http://careers.umbc.edu/gradrep .

Avoid Making Careless Job Search Mistakes

Here we are just a few weeks from graduation and although companies are hiring a bit more this year, it's still a tough market, according to CareerBuilder's annual job forecast.

How many graduates will make careless and thoughtless mistakes trying to find their first full-time job? It's downright shocking the blunders many applicants make when looking for work. They should know better.

To read the rest of the article and learn more about the importance of making a good first impression click here.

On Thursday, May 27 at noon Michelle Singletary, Washington Post Columnist, and Ellen Gordon Reeves, author of Can I Wear My Nose Ring to the Interview?, will be hosting a live online chat.

The Workforce Recruitment Program for College Students with Disabilities (WRP) is a recruitment and referral program that connects public and private sector employers nationwide with highly motivated postsecondary students and recent graduates with disabilities who are eager to prove their abilities in the workplace through summer or permanent jobs.

The WRP provides students with disabilities in all fields of study the opportunity to market their abilities to a wide variety of potential employers across the United States, sharpen their interviewing skills during a required one-on-one meeting with a WRP recruiter, and gain valuable skills, experience, and contacts on the job.

Applicants for the program must:

- be enrolled in an accredited institution of higher education on a substantially full-time basis (unless the severity of the disability precludes the student from taking a substantially full-time load) to seek a degree OR
- be enrolled in such an institution as a degree-seeking student taking less than a substantially full-time load in the enrollment period immediately prior to graduation OR
- have graduated from such an institution within the past year.

The WRP is run on an annual basis and requires student applicants to have an interview with one of our recruiters during an on-campus recruitment visit.

The interviews for summer and permanent positions will take place during at UMBC on February 11, 2010. Interested and eligible students will need to take the following steps:

1.) Upload your resume to your UMBCworks account (login via the Jobs & Internships Topic in myUMBC). After uploading, students must have their resume reviewed by a UMBC Career Specialist in the Career Services Center in Math/Psychology 212. Walk-in hourse are M-F, 2-4pm.

Some related fields of study may be: Accounting, Business, Communications, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Economics, Information Systems, Law, Office Automation, and other disciplines that may be related to SSA's positions. These opportunities could last for one summer or throughout your academic career. Students hired for summer employment may work approximately 90 days (not to exceed September 30th of each year). You may be hired for part-time work during the school year and you may continue in the program as long as you remain a student.

Formal periods of work and study are integrated into the program. If your work and academic experiences are successful, you may be eligible for permanent employment upon completion of your education.

The assignment may be in exchange for academic credit(s) based on the educational institution's requirements.
