Welcome to the Office Career Services!  Our aim is to support the Washington & Jefferson College mission to graduate men and women of uncommon integrity, competence, and maturity who are effective lifelong learners and responsible citizens, and who are prepared to contribute substantially to the world in which they live.  The Career Services office is committed to helping students determine and pursue their career goals. This is achieved through the services that we offer, including:

Career Services welcomes Jerry Lincoln, graduate practicum student from CalU. Jerry joins the department for the fall 2010 semester. Please welcome him to W&J.

College Central Network (CCN) allows students and alumni to access full-time, internship, part-time, and summer opportunities. Students and alumni are able to connect with employers, post resumes and cover letters, and in the near future create portfolios. There are typically over 50,000 national postings and numerous postings specific to W&J. New jobs are added daily, including entry-level jobs from nearly 150 newspapers. College Central also features over 1,000 career articles written by industry professionals to help guide you in your career exploration. We are also a member of the Liberal Arts Recruiting Consortium (LARC), comprised of 8 Greater Pittsburgh area Colleges and Universities, who will share local postings.

Current students and alumni starting with 2009 going forward, have been pre-registered. To access your account:-- Go to 

-- Click the "Students" icon
-- Click on the link to "Log in at Student Central"
-- Log in using your Student ID Number as your Access ID, and "presidents" as your password

After you log in, you must complete a short registration form. Then, for security purposes, we recommend that you change your password. Alumni can change their status from student to alumni at the bottom of the welcome page.

Alumni prior to 2009 can create an account by going to http://www.collegecentral.com/washjeff/ and selecting Alumni and selecting Register Now.

At this time you may see few local postings, as this is a brand new service that is just now being promoted to local employers. We're busy spreading the word, so check back often for new postings.

If you have any questions or need assistance in accessing this service, please contact the Office of Career Services at (724) 229-5126 or careerservices@RemoveThisPart.washjeff.edu.  

Sincerely,
Roberta, Jami, and Linda
