CAREER SERVICES is a department at CRBC that has liaisons within the Johnstown and Indiana campuses. These liaisons attend various dinners, mixers, and networking events, such as job fairs, to keep in touch with area employers.
Their job is to examine surrounding companies' needs and match those needs with the skills of a past or current CRBC graduate. They also help students and graduates with resumes, cover letters, interviewing skills, and whatever else may be needed to help assist graduates with employment. The liaisons will help with job searching, as well as, refer graduates to job openings.
Various methods are used to help graduates pursue their employment goals.
LIFETIME PLACEMENT. All graduates have the Career Service’s assistance in finding employment no matter how long ago they graduated from CRBC. All they have to do is contact Career Services and ask for assistance in seeking employment.
SHADOWING. Prior to graduation, students are encouraged to shadow an area business to gain skills and experience to add to their resume.
MOCK INTERVIEWS. Given in the last term before graduation, local employers are brought in to “mock” interview upcoming graduates. The employers in turn give their opinion (both good and bad) of improvements or reinforcement of the graduate’s interview to help improve the graduate’s skills for their future “real” interviews.
THE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CLASS. In this class students learn all of the do's and don'ts of the business world. They prepare resumes, references, and cover letters; analyze interviewing skills, as well as, all other areas of business. Students learn all of the skills needed to excel in today's business world.
