opportunities for current students, graduates and alumni. Individual

preparation is available by appointment. Any current or former
student and graduates are eligible to receive the full scope of these

Job Referral:
The hours for job referral to off-campus job openings are 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon and 1:30-4:30 p.m., Monday thru Friday. Although students are welcome to use this service on a drop-in basis, referral appointments are highly recommended. To schedule a referral appointment, drop by in person in room H-10 or call 235-7800, extension 4344 or 4383. The procedure for using Job Referral Services is:
Procedure:
1. Sign-in on register at the front desk.
2. Obtain & complete both sides of the job registration card at the front desk in H-10 (only required on the first visit.)
3. Check the job board located between H-7 and H-9. Write the job number and title of up to four (4) jobs in which you are interested on the Job Referral Slip (also located on front desk.)
4. If you meet the minimum qualifications of the job(s) you list, you may be referred on a first come, first serve basis. You are allowed up to four (4) referrals per day. If staff is not immediately available, you may schedule a referral appointment for a later time.
In determining your qualifications for a position, your ATTITUDE and OVERALL APPEARANCE will also be evaluated!! Please be neat, clean, and have a positive, patient attitude.
Federal College Work Study:
Federal College Work Study (FCWS) is a Financial Aid award which allows students who are receiving financial aid to work on-campus to receive this stipend. A number of on-campus FCWS funded student positions are available prior to and at the beginning of each semester. The referral process is the same as for off-campus job referral. Identify yourself as a potential FCWS eligible student at the time of your referral appointment. If you are receiving financial aid but have not yet received a FCWS award, you may still inquire and be referred to FCWS positions with the understanding that hiring will depend on final FCWS approval from the Financial Aid office. Once a student receives a job offer for an on-campus FCWS funded position, they need to report back to the Job Placement office for further instructions in order to complete the necessary forms for student employment.
Due to the demand and requirements of FCWS and CalWORKs programs, on-campus employment for students not receiving Financial Aid or CalWORKs benefits is very limited. However, students not eligible for Financial Aid but who wish to work part-time on campus may apply in person at any of the following departments: College Bookstore, Buildings & Grounds (Receiving Building), Business Services (room AA-201), and Police Services (SA Building.)
Practice Interviews:
Comprehensive job interview coaching is available on an individual basis by appointment. Video taping of practice interviews is also available upon request. Students are encouraged to take advantage of this valuable service to fine tune and focus their presentation and interviewing skills.
