Last night, the Career Center Representatives & Sodexho sponsored the 2009 Fall Etiquette Dinner.  Eighty five guests joined in on the dining fun, while getting a test run of fine dining and learning details of high etiquette.

Did you miss out on the Fall dinner but would like to participate in Spring? Make plans to join us for our Spring 2010 Etiquette Dinner on March 24th in the Globe Room of Cataldo from 5:30-8 pm.  Tickets will be $25 per person, but you will be able to purchase with Flex & Bulldog bucks.  (Tickets will go on sale mid-February)

For more information on Spring’s dinner, contact the Career Center at 313-4234 or careercenter@gonzaga.edu

Swing by the Career Center (2nd Floor of Crosby) for a fun and informal resume review while taking advantage of a free lunch! If you are not 100% confident in your resume, polish it before summer is here! Also, we will be having some Regents from the University visiting with staff, a great networking opportunity.

Gonzaga University hosted the 8th Annual Relay for life last weekend from April 3-4 with all proceeds going towards the American Cancer Society.  The Career Center Representatives put together a team and got fundraising resulting in $1,025.  ($25 above their set goal!) 

The event not only raises awareness and funds for cancer research, it also brings together a community with common a purpose and goal.    From belly dancing to  a Bomb Squad performance, the event is a fun community awareness builder. Students stayed warm through the night with hot cocoa as well as a late night COG breakfast.

For any Zag out there, I would personally recommend being involved next year!!

Congrats CCR’s for reaching your 2009 goal. Well done.

On March 31st, forty students joined Career Center staff  for an informative Etiquette Dinner presented by Martin Bustamante of Sodexo.  Students were instructed tips on how to eat in a fine dining scenario from which fork to use or what to do when soup gets on your tie.  

Since Etiquette never goes out of style, the Career Center Representatives (sponsoring student club) know the value of learning the “How-To’s” of dining.  

Look forward to Fall’s event.  Details coming soon.  

Career Center Representative’s (CCR’s) are comprised of student from various majors and schools with a range of career goals. The CCR’s work on projects ranging from internships, marketing, partnerships between various clubs and organizations on campus as well as being available to assist with Drop in Appointments with students. We encourage the CCR’s to develop the program to fit goals of personal career development. It is a win-win for everyone.

The time commitment is as follows: Career Center Representatives are required to commit to two office hours in the Career Center, every week between 8am and 4:30pm, attend two meetings per month and attend one Career Center event per month.

To request an application, e-mail Belinda at bobko@gonzaga.edu. We look forward to hear from you.  The deadline for the application is tomorrow, April 1st.
