There
is no doubt that 2010 will be a very busy year for your office. With
the unemployment rate still at 10 percent and firms making big hiring
plans for the coming months, you will have many students - and alumni - coming to you for job search help. OneWire can help you manage and meet all their needs.
Partner Schools
More than 450 colleges and universities have partnered with OneWire
to help their students and alumni advance their careers. This number
continues to grow as you share OneWire with others and as your
counterparts at other schools partner with OneWire to bring our
services to even more students and alumni.

Recruitment and Placement
2010 Outlook: Career Services Offices will Focus on More than Just Graduating Seniors
It
is not unusual for schools to maintain contact with their alumni long
after graduation, whether it be for class reunions, sporting events, or
fundraisers. It is unusual, however, for the Career Services Office to
contact alumni who have graduated more than a year ago to help them in
their job search. Today, that is changing.
The New York Times
recently reported that alumni are increasingly using the Career
Services Office from their school as a job search resource, no matter
their graduation date. In fact, the Career Services Office at the
University of Colorado, Boulder has hired a new staff member dedicated
solely to alumni. From hosting alumni seminars to working one-on-one
with job seekers, Career Services Offices are becoming a large part of
everyone's job search. Read the article.
Many
schools are now realizing that offering alumni services from their
career office is a great way to connect with alumni. However, if the
alumni do not come to you, it may be hard to find them, connect with
them, and offer your services. So, what steps can you take to keep
track of your alumni and help them land jobs? OneWire has the solution.

OneWire's Solution - New Campus Pro
Use OneWire's Campus Pro tool to Streamline Your Recruiting Processes and Alumni Outreach
Next month, OneWire will launch Campus Pro - our new, free suite of university tools - available only
to OneWire Partner Schools. In addition to controlling and managing the
entire recruiting process through one easy system, Partner Schools will
benefit from OneWire's robust reporting and tracking capabilities. With
Campus Pro, schools can track current students' campus recruiting
activities and effectively coordinate alumni outreach efforts.
OneWire's
Campus Pro allows you to tap into and communicate with an active alumni
database. It enables you to offer your alumni career advice, help them
in their job searches, connect them with your current students, and
follow them throughout their professional careers.
All student
profiles remain active on OneWire long after graduation. They can
update their profiles over the course of their careers to use OneWire
as a lifelong Career Management Tool. Year after year, you will have an
increasingly large alumni database that you will be able to connect
with and help throughout their careers.
Contact us to find out how our new Campus Pro tool can help your school, students, and alumni.
