What is CAREER 15?
Career 15 is a unique resource of the Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges (VFIC) through which you and top corporations that are looking for interns and employees can learn about each other and connect regarding real job opportunities. Registering with Career 15 could be the most important networking you do. Each academic year Career 15 sponsors multiple opportunties for students to connect with some of the larger corporations in the region who do not ordinarily recruit at the smaller colleges. They also endorse the annual "College to Career" (C2C) Job Fair. Excellent scholarships and internship positions are awarded each year.
The Career Services Center will host a "Career 15 Connections" table in Batten Student Center, September 8-18, 2009. All VWC students who register with Career 15 this fall will be entered into a raffle to win a GPS navigation system. Come by and find out what all the excitment is about. Learn more...
