Placement centers help December grads find jobs in tough economic times

Tim Stultz leans back on the grass and lets out a long sigh. He's worried about finding a job when he graduates this December. He's not alone.
Stultz, Lawrence senior, is one of many December graduates entering a highly selective job market.
"I really don't have real high expectations," Stultz said. "I don't want to set myself up thinking 'I can find something' and have it fall through."
Fred Madaus, director of the School or Business Placement Center, said it was a bad time to look for a job.
"The bottom line is that it looks like a tough market for December graduates," Madaus said.
Madaus hopes this year's Career Fair, sponsored by the Schools of Business and Engineering, will help graduates. The fair will be Sept. 24 and 25 at the Lawrence Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive.
"The companies coming to the fair seem positive," Madauss said. "They may not be hiring as many employees, but they are staying in touch with us."
Madaus thinks there are jobs available for graduates, but many are hidden.
*"Students must work harder to secure a job. They're having to shake bushes and turn
Melissa Alberts, St. Louis senior, is one of three students who staff the School of Journalism Placement Center. She says that internships are an essential part of the job search.
"We can help students start the job search before they graduate. Employers contact us, and we can arrange interviews in both the fall and spring." Glenn said.
Another possible option for graduates is a paid internship before attempting to enter the job market.
*Starting with a paid internship can only be a better job opportunities later.* *Alberta*

Terry Glenn, director of University Placement Center, which serves students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and in the Schools of Education and Fine Arts, thinks all of the centers on campus can be valuable to students.
Are you in a class by yourself?
If you've ever considered running your own business, now's the time to find out if you have what it takes.
Come by and see us at the career fair or call for more information. You may end up taking a course that few can.
One such step is for students to use the University's placement centers. These centers are designed to provide students with valuable services such as resume writing and interviewing techniques, as well as to keep students informed of job opportunities.
By becoming a part-time agent with John Hancock before you graduate, you can test your skills as an independent business person in one of today's most dynamic fields. But more importantly you'll be getting a big head start should you decide to stay with us after graduation.
There are other things that December graduates can do to improve their chances in the job market.
