Job Opportunities for PVCC students
Tucker Noelke, staff writer
Having a job is important. If there are bills to pay or extra spending money is needed, a job can be the answer. Piedmont Virginia Community College (PVCC) holds an annual job fair every year. This opportunity is given to PVCC students and community to find jobs and internships in the Central Virginia Area.
Even if you are seeking a job on your own, it is essential to figure out where you would want to potentially work. That means knowing what to do in the process of applying for a job. That includes knowing how to dress appropriately, how to behave in an interview, and having a resume ready in hand.
In the last year, there were a number of job opportunities the PVCC job fair represented. Best Buy, Jersey Mike’s Subs, Douglas Aquatics, UVA Credit Union, and Panera Bread were some of the businesses recruiting for new employees.
The UVA Credit Union has a “What Do We Value” section of their career options on their websites. It states, “As you make your career choices, it’s important to understand what UVA Community Credit Union values: service, respect, professionalism, productivity, and career growth. If you share these values, then you will find the credit union a fulfilling work environment.”
They also seek enthusiastic employees, who have a passion for being their best, and having a strong commitment to their service at UVA Credit Union. It is important to research the job, what they expect and learn what an employee can learn from working there.
