Students and alumni will now see jobs postings on the Walker College of Business Facebook page.
According to a representative from the BB&T Student Leadership Center, the goal of sharing the posts on social media is to better meet the needs of student job seekers as well as employers looking for top talent. "We want to meet our students where they are," said Taelor Critcher, an employee of the center who will help post the information on the college's Facebook page.
The BB&T Student Leadership Center provides opportunities for business students to build career skills through professional and leadership development training. The center provides career services with personalized coaching and support to business students as they prepare for a career beyond Appalachian. The center serves as a link between students and employment recruiters and alumni, and it provides programs and services to assist students as they develop professionally inside and outside of the classroom. Services offered include mentoring, leadership case competitions, career counseling, resume development, internship placement assistance, job search strategies, mock interviewing and salary negotiation training.
