CareerSearch Recommendations — Professionals speak out on the benefits and value Every day at colleges and universities across the country, CareerSearch is proving its value in helping counselors work with students to find rewarding and often hidden career opportunities. More and more, it is also being offered to alumni, faculty, and research professionals to network and expand their employment outreach programs. Here is just some of what college career center and resource professionals have to say about CareerSearch: "CareerSearch has proven to be an invaluable tool for our undergraduate and graduate students. Only a small portion of open jobs are ever published in a newspaper or posted the Web, and it is essential that students learn to identify and target potential employers through alternate means. CareerSearch helps our students to develop networking skills by allowing them to create lists of companies by their choice of industry and geographic limits, and providing contact names for each organization. From the library perspective, CareerSearch provides much more sophisticated searching capabilities, and more accurate results, than sources students normally find on the Web. CareerSearch's reasonable pricing plan recently allowed us to add additional users at a very affordable price, which allowed us to extend this excellent resource to alumnae/i. - Megan Fox Web & Electronic Resources Librarian, Adjunct Faculty Simmons College "GW [George Washington University] students enhance their job search through easy, "24/7" access to CareerSearch's vast database. Of particular value is the ability to yield up-to-date, relevant information on organizations and employers nationwide in one substantive resource. And students really like it." - Marva A. Gumbs, Executive Director of the Career Center The George Washington University "CareerSearch is a very good research tool and the price is right. We have increased student usage and our career counselors use it daily. Our Parents Association funded CareerSearch 100%. This is a tool that any parent group might be willing to fund. With CareerSearch's great capabilities, we can even track student usage and this helps us get funding for it." - Flora Riley, Director of the Michelin Career Center, Clemson University "CareerSearch has powerfully communicated our [Career Services] commitment to providing the very best resources to our students and alumni. CareerSearch has been the most powerful and significant resource that we have added to our services in years. Feedback from students and alumni have been terrific, once they began to use CareerSearch they understood what a powerful tool it was! This is not just a tool for job seekers, it has expanded our own network of employers, and it has become a valuable tool for conducting outreach and job development. CareerSearch has quickly become the favorite tool for our Career Services Staff." - Stan Inman, Director, Career Services The University of Utah To find out more and to get a free trial, call (888) 267-0321.
