Career and Academic Planning (CAP) tenter staff coordinator Jeff Bewsey said he Is pleased with the steady interest of employers who want to interview on campus, luthe said their interest will only be main- Jained if students sign up for the interviews. legistration has been slower than last se mester, and the Sherwin Williams Company postponed an interview date because not enough students registered. This semester has 23 recruiting dates scheduled. Several employers are interviewing on campus for the first time, including Enterprise Rent-A-Car, the North Carolina Division of Youth Services, Henderson Mental Health Center, Radio Shack and Veterans Affairs Canteen Services. During the semester of Fall 1993,42 interviewdateswerescheduled. Therewere three cancellations, but none were due to lack of student interest. The CAP Center's Resume Referral Service was also responsible for bringing new employers to campus. The service sends student resumes at the request of employers who have job openings. Broadway and Seymour, Carolina Fluid Technology, the Noland Company, Catawba Industrial Rubber Company, Technical Tooling and Youngblood Trucklines interviewed on campus based on the quality of resumes they received through the Resume Referral Service. Students who want to interview with an employer on campus mustfirstsign-up on clipboards located on racks outside the CAP Center in 80 McKee. To be eligible, students must also register for a Placement Workshop that allows them to open a personal file in the CAP Center and provides them with the necessary forms to complete. It is an easy process that enables students to take advantage of CAP Center placement services. Anupdatedlistofon-campusinterview- ers is posted outside 80 McKee and students can also use VAX terminals there to access information on theemployers and their qualifications. pet a jump on the job market, get credit for it Reading the daily headlines can be disheartening if not downright depressing.

She added, "I expected to be doing 'gopher' work but was pleasantly surprised that the work I was given to do was varied and interesting."
