Looking for a job? Try CFC


by Alison Keach - Features Editor

Are you still worried about what you're going to be doing after graduation? Well, the people that brought you the "College Fest Way More Weekend" for the last ten years may be able to help you out. On March 4th and 5th at the Boston Park Plaza Castle they are introducing their newest creation for college students in the Worcester/Boston area, College Fest Careers. This is designed for college seniors and graduate students, and will feature over seventy companies looking to recruit for a variety of jobs. Some of the companies that will have representatives present for engineering are: Vicor, Stratus, GTE, Raytheon, Teradyne, Bay Networks, M/A-COM and Stone and Webster. There will also be a variety of companies looking for employees with computer/high tech majors, and there will be six insurance companies looking to accept resumes for after graduation placement. There will also be three seminars that may be of interest to job seeking seniors. Brian Krugar, a CPC Hiring Manager for Keen Inc, the largest information systems consulting firm in the country, will be conducting two of the seminars. The first is "20 Job Hunting Tips for College Graduates", and the second is titled, "Finding a Job on the Internet". The third seminar will be given by Lynn Lieberman, M.E.D., a career consultant with Career Pro-Boston, and is titled, "Writing a Successful Resume". All three seminars will be offered on both Tuesday and Wednesday. Admission to this event is free and there will be a raffle where you can win lots of "job-related" prizes. Some recruiters may want to interview you on the spot, so bring some resumes and a positive attitude.
