Placement Center can help students looking for work
Mock interviews, job lists available to students, alumni
By Bryan Reber Kansan staff writer
Preparation for job-hunting may seem like an overwhelming task. But to the staff of the University Placement Center, it is a skill that can be built.
The University Placement Center is located in 110 Burge Union and is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Some services are provided free; for others there is a charge.
The University Placement Center provides on-campus interviews, resume and credential interviews, workshops, career information, individual counseling and mock interviews, said Terry Glenn, University placement director. He estimated that 170 employers conducted on-campus interviews during the 1989-90 school year.
"The majority of students who come to us are near finishing their degrees," Glenn said. "We also provide services for alumni."
"in terms of counseling, we can help you fine tune your resume or start from scratch if you don't have a resume."
There are user fees for some services offered by the Center. A $10 fee is

design a resume that would fit the position for which he was looking.
Students choosing to participate in a mock interview will be interviewed and videotaped. After the taped interview, the student and counselor will listen to the tape. Glenn said. There is no charge for the mock interview service.
There is a career library in the Center. In addition to printed resources concerning companies, resume writing, interviewing and training, there are video tapes of workshops presented by the center staff.
"We can provide contact between the student and employer." Glenn said. "We want to help students get their job search process in order."
