Student summer job
search can
By VICKI LAWRENCE
Q: I'm in school spring half, but I really
need a summer job for July and August.
What are my chances for finding
something this late?
A: The time to look for a summer job is,
of course, the preceding winter. Never-
theless, that doesn't mean that it's im-
possible to find something now. You
will have your work cut out for you,
however.
To look for jobs, try the Student Ac-
tivities Building. The Student Em-
ployment Office, on the second floor,
lists Ann Arbor jobs and the Career
Planning and Placement Office, on the
third floor, lists jobs for the rest of the
country. Both offices still are receiving
CAREERS,
a trickle of summer openings.
Anne Richter, Internship Supervisor
at Career Planning and Placement,
says that it even might be possible to
find an internship if you know what you
want and are willing to work to make it
happen.
If you are interested in the internship
idea, consider doing one on a volunteer
basis. You could even work during the
week, and do your volunteer work on
the weekends. The calibre of an inter-
nship experience might be worth the
sacrifice of some of your free time.
No matter what kind of iob you want
bewon
Placement has books, handouts,
videotapes and counseling on all aspec-
ts of looking for work, if you need help.
" Talk to people - family, friends,
acquaintances. Let them know what
you're looking for. Follow up every lead
they give you.
" Have a resume to give employers
when you speak to them.
" Given a choice, no one will hire
someone who looks grubby. You don't
need to wear a suit to an interview, but
you should be neat, clean and ap-
propriately well-dressed for work.
Don't give up. Check back with
people who have told you no.
Be creative. Could you start your own
business?Students have done gar-
dening, animal sitting, and even
dressed up as clowns for children's par-
ties.
Be flexible. Since you're starting so
late, you may need to settle for less
than what you want.
In the meantime, use whatever job
-you find this summer to its fullest
potential. Make them want to rehire
you next year - into a more respon-
sible and interesting position.
Don't wait till finals are over. Start
now. What you end up with, and what
you make of that, will depend on your
hard work and nersistence.
