Dear Dallas Baptist University Student:
Career Services is designed to help students bridge the gap from being a student to being a highly productive employee. It is our desire that as you embark upon your journey to obtain knowledge in your desired field of study that, through our services, you will also gain valuable work experience.
We hope to acquaint you with the many services offered through Career Services. Career counseling aids in the process whereby you may find a job that matches your talents, abilities, skills and interests. Resume writing, interviewing techniques, and tips on how to conduct a successful job search are also available.
CareerBridge, the online job search engine, allows alumni and students to view job listings from area employers, match their skills to job opportunities, and apply to jobs online. Employers have the capability to view applicant resumes and contact them directly. This online system is available to you twenty-four hours a day for convenient access to information regarding full-time and part-time employment, as well as internship opportunities. This service is available for students seeking on-campus and off-campus positions..
To bring our students in direct contact with local companies and corporations, two large JOB FAIRS are held each year, one in the fall and the other in the spring. Students are able to speak with representatives about current job openings. Career Services also sponsors a Mini Part-Time Job Fair in the fall that caters to both on-campus student worker and/or work-study jobs and off-campus part-time jobs. Students are encouraged to attend.
“Dress for Success Fashion Show” is sponsored in conjunction with the DBU College of Business Etiquette Dinner to aid students who are preparing to interview for a job or to demonstrate to them how to dress once they land the position. It is held twice a year in the Hillcrest Great Hall of the John G. Mahler Student Center.
Internships are such an invaluable way of gaining experience, as well as, providing financial support to students. We encourage all students to take advantage of this opportunity. Internships can be found on our CareerBridge online job search engine. We work in partnership with the International Center to host two International Student Internship Fairs each year, which are held in the International Center.
A full-service DFW/JobView Kiosk is available to all students. This tool allows job seekers the ability to view, print, and apply for more than 1,200 jobs in the Metroplex. Students can search for jobs by job title and/or employer name. The DFW/JobView Kiosk is updated weekly and provides the user with an interactive approach to the Dallas Morning News employment classified section. When a student applies for a job using the kiosk, the employer receives the information the following day.
This and many other services are available to our students. We would appreciate the opportunity to serve you and to walk with you on your journey toward a successful career.
In Christ,
Marion Hill
Director, Career Services
