Join Resume bank

Filed under: Computer Aided Design — Administrator @ 1:23 am
My company places nationally and this is where our base of operations is located.  I was hoping for a resume bank to be created from your students/contacts  
Basically, what I want to do is contact your graduates so that I can inform them of the positions that I have available at the time.  
They would then have a job contact for the future and we could put them into our database so that if and when any other opportunities become available we could let them know about it.  Any efforts made on your part would be appreciated and I look forward to hearing from you.
