Employment Opportunities:
Throughout the year, the Career Services department posts hundreds of summer, part-time and full-time job vacancies on behalf of employers. Our Internet job site is available to make job searching easier.

If you are a current student, or have been within the last six months, you can log onto our Job Posting site through your FanshaweOnline (FOL) homepage. The link to Career Services (click on Career Services and Coop Job Site) is linked from the Student Services listings on the right hand side of your homepage. Graduates who have been off campus can access this website through www.fanshawec.ca/careerservices. You will need your Fanshawe College student ID number to register as an alumni.

Internet access is available in the student computer labs or through the Career Services office (Room D1063). Copies of the job postings are also distributed to applicable program coordinators and contacts at all Fanshawe College campuses. Students registered at the Woodstock, St. Thomas, Simcoe and other sites are encouraged to check our website postings for opportunities related to their fields of study.

Visit the Career Services website often and be sure to look at the Events section of our site for notices of upcoming employmentrelated events both on and off campus and career fairs. We also offer job search and resume/cover letter workshops throughout the year, so drop by D1063 to sign up.

By using the advanced search options on the site, you can narrow your job search and set up alerts to be emailed when jobs which are related to your search are posted. When the Search Results page comes up, you will be asked if you want to save the search and if you want to receive e-mail notices of new postings to your search. Simply save and name your search and check off the box offering you this service.
