Posting jobs
We’re your direct link to the talent you need. Our students are actively looking for jobs, whether part-time as they finish their education or full-time to start their careers upon graduation.
We recommend posting open jobs in JobLinksSM.
JobLinks is a free job posting database for JCCC students and alumni, community members and employers. To use JobLinks:
- Download JobLinks Instructions for Employers (PDF)
- Create and register your account
- Access and update your account through the Employer JobLinks Login
Internships
Internships are built-in recruitment tools with many benefits* to you, including:
- Bring in talented students to contribute to your organization’s goals and mission
- Free up time for your full-time staff to increase productivity
- Foster leadership skills in current employees who work with interns
- Increase your visibility to other JCCC students
We will work with you to develop an internship program that meets your goals while also providing the educational value our students need to gain real-world experience.
For unpaid internships, please refer to the Fair Labor Standards Act guidelines.
Job Shadowing
Support the professional development of students who could be your future talent. Join a growing number of employers who serve as mentors in our job shadowing program.
It’s easy. Simply host interested students for a one-time, two- to four-hour job shadowing visit. Benefits to you include:
- Leadership development opportunities for current employees
- Increased name awareness among future professionals
- A chance to connect with students who will be applying for internships and jobs in your industry
- The opportunity to more deeply examine the “whys” behind your daily processes
We’ll work with you to set up a shadowing program that benefits both you and your guest student. Some tips:
- Plan the visit to accommodate the student’s interests and goals
- Include a tour of the office or worksite
- Provide career advice that helped you succeed or grow
- Allow time for the student to observe your daily tasks and responsibilities
