New Additions to the Career Center Website!!

The Career Center is proud to announce a few new additions to our website:

Going Global is a very helpful resource that can help you whether you are looking for a job in Missouri, another state, or another country.  In the USA/Canada Career City Guide, you will find information about many key cities including cost of living, lists of the largest employers, job search websites, cultural information, and a list of nonprofit/volunteer opportunities.  When looking for a position in another country, it is often difficult to navigate the visa process and cultural differences in the job search process.  For those looking for H1B visa sponsorship, Going Global will give you a list of H1B employers by state and city with links directly to the employer’s website.  With the Country Guides resource, you will find all of this key information in one place including job search resources, business and networking groups, and industry and employment trends. When conducting a job search, it is very important to research employers before applying for positions and the Employer Directory can help.  This tool provides basic information including a brief description, number of employees, link to their website, and contact information. There is even a place to search for job/internship postings both in the US and internationally.  Overall, you will find that Going Global is a wonderful resource no matter where your job search takes you.

**You can access Going Global from anywhere in the world through your Job Tracks account (contact the Career Center for Job Tracks login information- 417-836-5636).  The link on our website can only be accessed from an on-campus computer until you create a personal account.  After your personal account has been established, you may log-in from anywhere.

 

Uniworld allows you to search for either American firms operating in foreign countries or foreign firms operating in the United States using a variety of filter criteria.  It will provide you a spreadsheet with information about the different companies including locations, contact info, website, revenue, CEO names, and a brief description of services/products.  This is all very useful information when doing research and identifying possible employers to target.

**You can access Uniworld from anywhere in the world through your Job Tracks account (contact the Career Center for Job Tracks login information- 417-836-5636).  The link on our website can only be accessed from an on-campus computer.

 

The NACE Salary Calculator will allow you to research salary information specific to your industry, education, and location.  Using the Job Seeker link, you will enter your own information including major, GPA, experience level, university, and location.  From this you will see the starting salaries for the bottom 10%, median, and top 10% of those in your field as well as a starting salary you can expect to be offered giving your specific situation.  This is essential information for you to have for any job interview.

**The NACE Salary Calculator can be accessed from anywhere.

  1. Its like you learn my thoughts! You seem to understand so much approximately this, such as you wrote the e-book in it or something. I feel that you just can do with some % to drive the message house a little bit, but other than that, this is excellent blog. An excellent read. I’ll certainly be back.
