The UNO Counseling and Career Center assists currently enrolled students and university alumni with the development of clear career objectives and career-related skills, awareness of career options, and mastery of the job search process. The Center encourages students to acquire career skills and knowledge that will be useful to them throughout their lives.
The UNO Counseling and Career Center facilitates the job search process by providing students and alumni access to internship and employment opportunities with local and national employers. By providing up-to-date, online tools for employers, the process of identifying potential candidates is quick and efficient.
For more information about our student population, please visit our Statistics page.
The UNO Counseling and Career Center uses the CSO Solutions Opportunities Database as it's hub for job and resume postings, information about and registration for recruitment events, and our primary means of communicating with recruiters and potential employers.
The Opportunities Database allows for multiple users linked to one company/employer. For security purposes and ease of use, each user for a given company must create a unique username and password for access to the company/employer record.
An Opportunities Database employer account may contain information such as the website address, company description, even a special links on the website that includes career information. Individuals associated with the company need not "reinvent the wheel" and can simply associate themselves with the company site and gain access with their unique username and password.
For example, let's say Phil works for Accounting & Computing, Inc. and posts an internship position with his department each year. By creating a unique username and password, Phil can post his contact information and the internship listing and have resumes and related information sent directly to him in Accounting posts an internship once a year and he wants to get resumes sent to him directly. Jan works also works for Accounting & Computing, Inc. and she wants to hire a temp for December. Jan can do exactly what Phil did, also without the need to enter all of the company information all over again. As a recruiter for Accounting & Computing, Inc., Mike can create in interview schedule for his on-campus recruiting efforts and career fairs.
These are three users with three different needs. They all have their own username and password so they can use the system exactly as they need to. Additionally, if Phil in Accounting leaves the company, then only his access is deleted. We don't have to reset usernames or password for anyone else.
Please visit our Opportunities Database Information page or contact Adrienne Mustiful, PhD at 504-280-6225 if you have questions about the Opportunities Database.
