Career Opportunities

The first place to look for job listings is at your campus career center. Most jobs advertised on Internet job pages are high-tech ones; liberal arts majors, especially, may not find a good fit. Many online metropolitan-area newspapers have searchable classified ads with wider variety of openings. However, do not limit any serious job search to Internet sources. Finding a job is a job.
