Placement Offices, Job Fairs, and Associations
ОглавлениеIf you are in college or a trade school, start your job search in your school’s career placement office. The counselors maintain job listings and can advise you on preparing a résumé and writing cover letters. Your school may also host job or career fairs that give students the opportunity to meet with many potential employers in one place. Graduates who are changing careers can contact their colleges’ alumni associations for job leads.
Joining or contacting a professional association, such as the American Veterinary Medical Association, is another good way to find job opportunities in your field. Professional associations often have job listings on their Web sites that are accessible only to members. In fields such as advertising, marketing, or public relations, you are more likely to find a dog- or pet-related job through personal contacts than a professional association.
