It is a powerful job search site which checks over 6800 jobs posting sites and compiles the results for different fields. There are many useful tools on the site including the ability to see which alumni work at a particular company and what position they hold. The Career Center is always interested in feedback for this site. If you have any suggestions you can contact Lisa Anderson.
