General News

Our New Website The Centre for Career Education’s (CCE) new website has been up since the end of January

(http://uwindsor.ca/cce). A sincere thank you to Gina Alb for creating it and the IT Services:

Web Development Team for providing her with training and support. In July 2009, the Web

Development Team started Gina’s training. After the training, when working on the website,

Gina explains, “it was easy to make things work.” When reflecting on the whole process,

culminating with the release in late January, 2010, Gina says she had “fun creating the

website.” Visit the website and check out all the resources offered.

The focus of the new website is to cater to prospective students, but there are many resources

for current students, employers, faculty, and staff. The CCE website provides everyone with an

overview of the services and programs offered through the CCE and ways to take advantage of 

them. Examples of services advertised include job postings and workshops via myCareer, the

portal through which students are provided with tools to have a successful employmentexperience. MyCareer can be accessed by going to http://career.uwindsor.ca, clicking on

“Student” and logging in with your Uwin ID. Also, resume reviews can be done using

documents provided by the ICAN website (http://uwindsor.ca/ican) or a personal critique of 

your resume can be provided by using the E-resume service and in-person clinic

([email protected]). Co-operative Education and the Volunteer Internship Program (VIP)

are examples of two of the programs provided to aid students in their pursuit of employment

experience. Students can also find links to interview preparation, career mapping resources,

and experiential learning information at our new website.

An Employer Services section has been developed to provide a “liaison between students,

employers, recent graduates, and the different faculties and departments within the

University.” Through the website, employers can find ways to advertise jobs, provide students

with employment opportunities through the Co-operative Education or VIP programs, or post

on and off campus job opportunities as they become available.

In the Faculty and Staff Services section, the CCE provides an overview of CCE programs and

services and how they can help the students gain knowledge and experience in their field of 

study. Regarding staff services, CCE provides a place where staff can post employment

opportunities for students and find out more about our Co-operative Education and VIP

program placements.

As you peruse the web page, your feedback is appreciated. In the menu, on the left-hand side

of the page, there is a link to “Questions & Comments.” Please indicate if you found the

website easy to navigate and if there is anything that you could not find. Through your

feedback, the CCE webpage can be improved to better serve your needs.

Come back to the web page frequently as the CCE has many events happening. These events

are listed on the right-hand side under the “CCE News & Events” and are updated frequently.

 Summer Job Search Tips

If you’re a student, planning on working this summer, your search for a summer job should

have already started… if not – you’ll have to get cracking! 

The first thing you will have to consider is what you would like to do? Take a look at your skills

and interests as well as the needs of the local economy where you will be spending your

summer. Are you interested in working with kids? How about working on the beach, at a park,

in the mountains, or at another outdoor job? You can look for opportunities on the myCareer

 job posting site as well as speaking with the Career Development Coordinator and Employment

Advisor and ask how they can assist you with your job search.

Consider volunteer internship opportunities as well as summer job listings. An internship is an

ideal opportunity to gain experience in a particular career field that supports your degree

program. An internship is great way to test the waters in a variety of career fields and to gain

"real-life" experience.

Network 

Speak with teachers, family, former employers, coaches, friends, parents of friends - anyone

and everyone you can think of - and ask for contacts in your geographic and/or career fields of 

interest. Meet with (or call) these individuals for information about careers and advice about

conducting your summer job/internship search.

Contact Employers

Telephone or visit employers in your geographic and/or career areas of interest and inquire

about summer jobs/internships. Be prepared to give a 15 second promo regarding your skills,

strengths, and motivation for working with them. Most summer jobs are acquired by using this

technique. If you write to employers, follow up with a phone call whenever possible to arrange

in-person or telephone interviews.

their candidates. The PSC will contact the selected candidates by phone to check their interest

and availability. There is no deadline for applying to the general inventory; however, certain

departments hire students earlier than others. http://jobs-emplois.gc.ca/fswep-pfete/index-eng.htm.

Career Resources

 Job Fair 2010 – A Partnership to the Future

Over 1600 students from both the University of Windsor and St. Clair College flocked to the St.

Denis Centre on the 26th

January 2010 to meet with 62 potential employers. The annual job fair

brought employers from across Canada and the United States to meet our students and

upcoming graduates.

Students were able to meet and distribute their resumes to employers of interest while

networking and gaining valuable contacts.

The Centre for Career Education would like to thank all of those who participated and

contributed to such a successful event for both employers and students, after all this is our

“Partnership to the Future”! We look forward to your participation in January 2011.

A reminder to students for future years: please bring copies of your resume, dressappropriately for the occasion, research potential employers, and be prepared to ask questions.

Marketing Yourself in the Job Search

The biggest challenge you will face as a job seeker is the ability to market yourself. This is a

critical employability skill as your success in getting hired is directly tied to how effective you

are at marketing yourself. Most job seekers either hate it or are very uncomfortable with it.

Successful job seekers achieve their success through hard work, a deep seated belief in

themselves, and how they can apply their skills, education, and experience to be of benefit topotential employers. They also know what they want, are not easily discouraged, and never

stop until they get what they are looking for.

The primary reason job seekers fail at getting hired is lack of preparation, or failing to do their

homework before getting in front of an employer. The biggest challenge in marketing oneself is

to communicate to a potential employer how they can benefit from using the skills and

experience you, as the job seeker, have to offer. All employers want to know the answer to two

questions: “How Can You Help Me? and Why You”? In other words, “What can you do for me

right now”?

In the employer’s eyes, you are looked upon as being either an asset or a liability to the

company. To succeed in obtaining employment, you need to educate the employer and

eliminate all of their doubts and objections by demonstrating to them how you can help them.

Most job seekers are weak in this area. They’ve never taken the time to thoroughly analyze

themselves and the skills they have to offer. It’s no longer sufficient to identify yourself as an

engineer, accountant, MBA, graphic designer, or whatever. You need to be very clear about the

skills you have to offer, you need to be able to describe how you have used those skills to

create results, and more importantly, you need to be able to demonstrate to an employer how

Page 7: Student Newsletter Winter 2010

7/31/2019 Student Newsletter Winter 2010

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/student-newsletter-winter-2010 7/15

Winter 2010 Edition

7

you can now use these skills in the job you are applying for to assist the employer in the

achievement of their goals. How will hiring you make their lives easier? What can you do for

them? What problems and challenges do they have that you can help them with?

As you begin to analyze your education, experience, and skills, you have to play devils’ advocate

with yourself. Put yourself in the shoes of the employer you want to work for and take a “sowhat?” attitude towards your skills and experience and be prepared to respond to that

attitude.

The key to your success is to know as much about a potential employer’s business as you can

and to be absolutely convinced that your skills and experience will help them. Most job seekers

do not do this. They often assume that their skills and experience speak for themselves. They

don’t. It is your responsibility to educate the employer and demonstrate how they can benefit

from hiring you.

If you stay focused on the key question that is always on the back of the mind of employers,

“How can you help me?” you will be successful. 

Experiential Learning

Experiential Learning is based on the premise that students learn by doing. Ideally, students

should learn in the classroom, then go out and gain hands-on experience within their field. As

students find experience in the workplace they reflect on that experience and learn more about

themselves and the career they are pursuing.

The Centre for Career Education, believes Experiential Learning is important to every student’s

success. Co-op placements, internships and practicum and field placements are some directed

examples of experiential learning. Joining clubs and taking on leadership responsibilities within

those clubs are self-directed applications. Several other workplace initiatives include the

Volunteer Internship Program I & II and the Work Study program. All of these programs

provide students with a great opportunity to gain the experience needed to balance their

learning with experience and with the experience, increase their employability.

CCE Role in Employer Recruiting on Campus

Career Programming

New VIP Employers

The Centre for Career Education would like to welcome our new employers as participants in

the Volunteer Internship Program at the University of Windsor. The VIP Employers play a vital

role in helping our students gain invaluable work experience in their field of study or interest.

We’d like to welcome the f ollowing new employers who posted for the first time in the Winter

2010 work term. We look forward to continued success working with the following:

       

Volunteer Internship Program Awards

Student’s Choice: Outstanding VIP Supervisor – James Miuccio, OHCOW

Every year students send in their nominations for the Student’s Choice: Outstanding VIP

Supervisor Award. The students are given this opportunity to recognize a supervisor who was

an exceptional mentor and went above and beyond normal expectations to ensure the student

had a quality VIP placement.

This award takes the work experience and the interaction of the supervisor with the student

into account.

The quality of the work experience describes how the student was:

  Allowed to have input.

  Treated as a member of the organization.

  Challenged.

  Encouraged to take initiative.

Supervisor ratings are based upon how the supervisor:

  Made time for the student.

  Acts as a mentor.

  Is committed to the student’s development.

  Is committed to expanding the student’s knowledge.

This year, three hundred students had the opportunity to nominate outstanding supervisors.

There were four nominations, and of those, two were for the same employer. We are delighted

to announce that the winner is Occupational Hygienist, James Miuccio. He was nominated by

Christine Cobbler and Nick Brahmbhatt for their respective placements at the Occupational

Health Clinics for Ontario Workers. Nick said that James deserves this award for providing

“Many essential skills I outlined I wanted to improve.” Christine commented that “He

constantly searched for ways that I could benefit from the VIP program and add to my résumé

experience…he was always there to offer guidance I needed.” Congratulations James Miuccio,

the winner of the Student’s Choice: Outstanding Supervisor Award!

Thank you to all the students and employers who participated in the Volunteer Internship

Program this semester.

Employer’s Choice: Outstanding VIP Student  - Danielle MacIntyre, Bulimia

 Anorexia Nervosa Association

Seven employers sent the CCE their nominations for outstanding students. The two categories

were the quality of the student’s on the job performance and student’s demonstration of going

above and beyond expectations.

Quality of the student’s on the job performance is based on the:

  Level of challenge in the role the student performed within.

  Student’s consistent demonstration of a high level of professionalism.

  Student’s consistent demonstration of a high level of dedication to the volunteer 

placement and related duties.

  Student’s meaningful contribution to the advancement of the VIP employer’s goals

through exemplary performance in assigned tasks.

Demonstrated how the student went above and beyond expectations by:

  Taking initiative when performing assigned tasks.  Committing themselves to the VIP employer beyond the minimum 40-hour

requirement.

  Making a unique contribution to the organization by taking on an exceptionally

challenging project or assignment.

  Bringing forth a new idea or initiative.

This year, of the seven nominated, Danielle Macintyre was chosen to be the Outstanding VIP

student. Her employer, Mia Tannous of the Bulimia Anorexia Nervosa Association praises

Danielle saying, “I have had many other volunteers and VIP students, but she has stood out

among them…she was very effective in fulfilling her requirements.” Mia adds that Danielle “Putin the maximum amount of effort, making the end result great.” 

Congratulations Danielle MacIntyre on winning the Outstanding VIP Student Award! Thank you

all for participating in this great program.

Co-operative Education

New Employers

The Centre for Career Education would like to welcome our new co-operative education

employers this semester. These are the employers who posted opportunities for the first time:

             

Co-op Education Award 

Student’s Choice: Outstanding Supervisor Award – Richard Wathy, Union Gas

Each semester, the Co-op students are given an opportunity to recognize exemplary employers.

This award goes to the one employer who was an exceptional mentor and went above and

beyond normal expectations to ensure the student had a quality placement.

The position allowed the student to:

  Have input.

  Be treated as a member of the organization.

  Be challenged.

  Take the initiative.

The quality of the supervisor was shown by:

  Making time for the student.

This year, there were five nominations. Of these, Richard Wathy from Union Gas was ranked at

the top for the Outstanding Supervisor Award. Nominated by Gautam Rao with comments such

as, “He encouraged me to seek knowledge and understand concepts rather than mechanically

working through my job…I believe he deserves this award due to the immense amount of 

person growth I have been able to achieve under his guidance.” Thank you, Guatam and

Richard, for participating in the Co-op Program.
