INTRODUCTION:

The forty-second annual report of Career Services summarizes activities for the 2009-10 academic year.

Congratulations to all students listed in this report who successfully completed their college education!

This report is designed as an integral part of the education process, giving students some insight into the demands of business, industry, educational institutions and government agencies. It also reflects items of interest to the faculty and administration in curriculum development.

Although Career Services offers employability skills training, career development assistance and a centralized resume referral service for all students and alumni of Missouri Southern State University, we do not take credit for having “placed” all graduates listed in this report. The goal of Career Services is not to match students with a job, rather, it is to provide services that will help MSSU students become “suitably employed” before, upon or shortly after graduation. (See goals on page five.)

Career Development Day continued to be a success with representatives from 56 employers and organizations in attendance. About 788 students attended Career Development Day to learn more about various careers. Forty-four employers attended Spring Job Expo along with about 450 students. Education Job Fair was attended by 14 school districts and about 83 students.

PRINCIPLES OF PROFESSIONAL CONDUCT FOR CAREER SERVICES & EMPLOYMENT PROFESSIONALS:

As a member of the National Association of Colleges and Employers, the Midwest Association of Colleges and Employers and the American Association for Employment in Education, Missouri Southern State University subscribes to the Principles of Professional Conduct adopted by the National Association of Colleges & Employers which in essence:

"...are designed to provide practitioners with three basic precepts for career planning, placement, and recruitment:

  1. Maintain an open and free selection of employment opportunities in an atmosphere conducive to objective thought, where job candidates can choose optimum long term uses of their talents that is consistent with personal objectives and all relevant facts;
  2. Maintain a recruitment process that is fair and equitable to candidates and employing organizations;
  3. Support informed and responsible decision making by candidates."

These principles imply that the employer, the university, and the student are obligated to assume certain responsibilities.

CAREER SERVICES MISSION STATEMENT:

Our mission is to empower Missouri Southern State University students and alumni to develop self-assessment and job-search competencies, to successfully link with employers and to actively manage their own career development in a global workplace.

Top

GOALS:

  1. Assist students in developing self-knowledge related to career choice and work performance by identifying, assessing and understanding their competencies, interests and values.
  2. Assist students in gaining experience through student activities, community service, student employment, research projects, internships and other opportunities to integrate academic learning with work.
  3. Help students prepare for finding suitable employment by developing job-search skills, effective candidate presentation skills and an understanding of the fit between their competencies and the world of work.
  4. Help students link with desired employment opportunities or gain entrance into appropriate educational, graduate or professional programs to promote student success.

SERVICES OFFERED BY CAREER SERVICES:

Career Services at Missouri Southern State University offers employers, students and graduates of the college a variety of services to assist them with recruiting efforts, career planning, and the job search, respectively.

Students and graduates are encouraged to take advantage of:

  • Career advising
  • Informational interviews
  • Job-search workshops
  • Resume consultations
  • Mock interviews
  • On-campus interviews
  • Job listings
  • Resume referrals
  • Career Development Day
  • Spring Job Expo
  • Education Job Fair

Employers may benefit from the following services:

  • Job listings on the Hire A Lion
  • Resume referrals
  • Reference referrals
  • Career Development Day
  • Spring Job Expo
  • Education Job Fair
  • On-campus interviews

Career Services works closely with the Advising, Counseling and Testing Services and with Missouri Southern's academic departments to assist students in planning careers, developing a personal marketing strategy, and implementing an effective job search. While many graduates have found these services to be extremely valuable, students are advised that they should take the initiative in seeking employment; relying on Career Services alone will not be enough. There are many resources available that provide assistance in the job search, and those seeking employment are encouraged to avail themselves of all of them.
