Career and Employment Services serves Amarillo College Staff and Faculty, local employers, and most of all, our students. We strive to help students obtain and retain employment from the very beginning of their career through their career progress. For us to achieve our mission, we offer multiple services for the college.
Students
- College Central Network: this is our job board that hosts internship opportunities, active job listings, and can connect students with employers in and out of the panhandle area.
- Job Search, Internship and Mentoring Assistance: If you are looking for any kind of mentorship, internship or a job we can get you connected with an employer to discuss opportunities. We can help you craft informational interview questions or even get you connected to apply for the Adams Earn & Learn program.
- Resume and Cover Letter Reviews: Should you need a resume or other document edited to apply for a job or experience, we can help with that! Also, if you are looking to be employed as a student worker you will need that resume to apply through College Central Network.
