Reminder Dear Juniors and Seniors,
We have partnered with Career Services to give our junior and senior majors access to Wildcat Joblink. Wildcat JobLink is a state-of-the-art career management tool, offering UA students access to jobs, internships, and a range of other services including campus interviewing and resume referrals.
To access JobLink, please visit the Career Services website at https:// www.career.arizona.edu/joblink. All you need is your NETID and password to login and take advantage of these great services.
Why is SGPP only funding juniors and seniors to have access to JobLink? The funding comes from SGPP Program Fees, which only our junior and senior majors pay. If you are a freshman or sophomore, you are welcome to register and pay the annual $5 fee out of pocket. Visit https://www.career.arizona.edu/joblink to register.
I will be a junior at the end of the current semester. When can I have access? SGPP will be requesting access for any students who have reached 60+ credits each semester after the census date (the 21st day of the semester). So, if you will have 60+ completed credits at the end of this semester, you will be granted access next semester after the census date. If you have any questions, please email ahackett@email.arizona.edu .

Announcements UA Education & Nonprofit Career Fair Wednesday, February 13, 2016 3pm – 6pm On February 13th UA Career Services will be hosting an event for students seeking permanent positions in the Education and Nonprofit sectors. Participating school districts, charter schools, and nonprofits need leaders who are enthusiastic about a cause they believe in and want to work to represent the goals of that particular organization. Schools are particularly in need of Math, Science, English…in short, STEM teachers.
Nonprofits can offer opportunities for students and recent college graduates to stretch career-wise in ways that are not readily available in the more structured environments common to large corporations. Some of the organizations that will be recruiting include:
American Leadership Academy
CITY Center for Collaborative Learning
EBS Healthcare
Peace Corps
Urban Teachers
