Career College of San Diego
maintains a policy of providing job placement assistance for
all of its graduates. Placement assistance is a privilege of
any graduate who requests it, and who follows the CCSD
guidelines. CCSD does not guarantee placement. If an
ineligible student/graduate does not successfully complete
all of the Professional Development classes, and/or is
uncooperative with the placement coordinator, placement
assistance may be denied.
Career College of San Diego’s job placement assistance is a
vital part of the students educational program. The Career
Services Department is staffed with full-time placement
professionals and offers students/graduates an active
placement service, and, although the securing of positions
cannot be guaranteed, every avenue is pursued to assist
students in obtaining desirable employment. CCSD will do
everything possible to provide students with the best and
most up-to-date job placement opportunities. While locating
a job as close to the student’s home is desirable, sometimes
the best jobs are located within a reasonable distance from
the student’s home. Prior to externship and job placement,
the Career Services Department will instruct and guide
students/graduates with career planning, interviewing
techniques, resume preparation, completing job applications,
professional job counseling, professional attire workshops,
interview follow-up, networking and time management.
Placement assistance is available to all students who
successfully complete the requirements for graduation in
their respective programs. Students must meet the following
guidelines to assist in their career placement:
• First impressions are
vital. Being neatly dressed and having a clean
appearance greatly enhance your chances of making a good
impression. Smoking and chewing gum are not acceptable
during job interviews.
• Being punctual for your interviews is crucial. In
addition you must advise your placement coordinator
promptly of any cancellation or rescheduling of your
interviews.
• Placement coordinator must be regularly informed on
the status and results of your interviews, past,
present, or future.
• The Career Services Department always attempts to find
employment with the area of interest to the student.
However, this may not always provide opportunities. In
that case the department will look in areas within a
reasonable distance from the chosen area.
• The chance of placing a student is tremendously
improved if the student himself /herself also
aggressively seeks employment opportunities and informs
the Career Services Department of his contracts and
activities.
• The Career Services Department never warrants,
guarantees, or promises a particular compensation level.
Compensation depends upon the employer.
• It is essential for the student not only to be
proficient in his/her field of study but also to be able
to sell his/her abilities during an interview.
Our placement services are
available on an on-going basis to CCSD graduates. Placement
doesn’t stop with the graduate’s first employment site. We
encourage our graduates to return for job placement at any
time. |
