Looking for a job? Find one at Student Employment Services

The Student Employment and Cooperative Education Services at Salt Lake Community College have resources available for students looking for part or full time positions while in school. The Student Employment Services have access to hundreds of job listings and employers as well as they offer workshops and programs to help students in their search.

The Student Employment Services hosts two job fairs every year with 90 to 100 employers attending. They also help facilitate recruiting on campus with over 200 employers on a regular basis. Some jobs are posted on their website and job boards but students are encouraged to come in and talk to the job specialists and career advisors to go over qualifications, experience and how to apply.

“We’re trying to just let students know that if they’re looking for full or part time work while they’re going to school we can help them with that as far as giving them resources to find those full or part time jobs,” said employment and career advisor Wendy Potter.  “Then assisting them with developing tools that will help them be successful as far as putting together a good application, resume, cover letters, understanding the online application process as well as delving into social media and how they’re presenting themselves and their Google footprint.”

One option they offer students, that many do not know about is the opportunity for students to earn academic credits from their paid or volunteer positions if it is related to their major. Also, students looking for specific internships to their major can apply. Contact their offices for information and restrictions.

“We want to let [students] know we’re here,” said Potter. “We have access to and we know where the jobs are so if they’re looking then we want them to know that there is a service on campus for them.”

“We want to let [students] know we’re here,” said Potter. “We have access to and we know where the jobs are so if they’re looking then we want them to know that there is a service on campus for them.”

According to Potter, many students aren’t aware of what that the Student Employment Services offer and where they are located. Tucked away in the Administration Building on the Taylorsville Redwood Campus, they have access to campus jobs as well as jobs in the community. In addition to their Redwood Campus office they also have locations at the Jordan and South City campuses. Appointments are encouraged at these locations.

“We are a service for students funded through student services but one of those hidden offices that students don’t know we’re here,” said Potter. “We’re in the Admin building as opposed to Student Services so we’re kind of off the beaten path.”

A Job Search, Resume, Cover Letter and Job Interview Workshop event will be held Wednesday Aug. 8 at 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and again on Tuesday Aug. 14 2-4 p.m. in the Administration Building room 195. The Job Fair will be held Oct. 24 later this year.
