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 homepage. The link to Career Services (click on Career Services and Co-op Job Site) is linked from the Student Services listings on the right-hand side of your homepage. Graduates who have been off campus for longer than six months 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.

Please visit the Career Services website often. Be sure to look at the EVENTS section of our web page for notices of upcoming employment-related events and career fairs, both on and off campus. By using the advanced search options you can narrow your job search and set up alerts to be emailed when jobs 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 email notices of new postings to your search. Simply save and name your search and check off the box offering you this service.
