Donnelly College recently held its annual job fair. This particular job fair really offered a lot of positions that are available not only for the students but also other members of the community as well.
Multiservice Information Technology is a company that specializes in design and setup of management and closed loop payment programs, which was founded in 1978 with their own fuel card program for over-the-road trucking companies. At the fair they had accounting positions, project manager, engineering, financial goals, inside sales reps, business analyst and customer service coordinator.
Sprint, which is due to open up a brand-new call center in Overland Park, Kan., has a position that is called bilingual operator services representative. It requires a person who could handle upset customers and maintain a positive and professional attitude and the ability to communicate with customers in non-technical terms to ensure understanding of the next step. The starting hourly rate for this position is $12.62 per hour. It requires a high school diploma or equivalent. Bilingual is a must, English, written and verbal, and Spanish, verbal and students studying Spanish language are welcome to apply as well.
UPS was there as well. It has a lot of opportunities in its organization and has a lot of openings.
These three companies are just an example. There were more companies that are not mentioned. More than 20 companies were represented in this annual job fair.
Those who attended not only had an opportunity to find out what was available but they also had the opportunity to meet with companies of their liking.
