Hoos getting new 'help wanted' section

A new online job-posting service will be available to alumni as of March 1, through the U.Va. Alumni Association Web site, Hoosonline.

The new service, U.Va. Alumni Job Connections, is part of the Career Connection section of Hoosonline, the password-protected online community for U.Va. alumni. Graduates may register for this free service at http://www.hoosonline.virginia.edu/.

Other features of Career Connection include the University Career Assistance Network, an 18,000 member network of career and job search mentors; the online U.Va. alumni directory; and e-mail forwarding for life.

Employers may purchase subscriptions to U.Va. Alumni Job Connections to have their companies listed before the site is launched. Nonprofit organizations and K-12 schools may qualify for discounts. Companies who hire alumni get a discount on their first subscription. See http://www.alumni.virginia.edu/career/employer.
