| By Tom Oxenreider,
Director of Career Development Greetings! I would like to take
this opportunity to introduce myself. My
name is Tom Oxenreider and I serve the
Montreat College community as the
director of the Office of Career
Development.
The Office of Career
Development helps students and alumni in
the process of discovering where and how
to use their gifts and talents in the
world of work to the glory of God. This
is exciting work. We work with new
students to help them choose a career
direction. We help sophomores and juniors
with internships and summer jobs. We help
seniors with job and graduate school
searches.
We could use your help.
Your knowledge and career experience is
invaluable to Montreat College students.
There are some ways that you may be able
to help our students. If there are any
positions, internships or summer jobs
available at your place of employment,
please contact us to list those positions
to our students and alumni. You can
volunteer your time as a McSOURCE Career
Mentor and help students that are
interested in your career field. If you
are interested in helping, simply return
the coupon below and I’ll be in
touch.
I welcome your input
and questions – please call me at
704-669-8012 ext. 5101.
