We've heard your calls for a Career Networking Website.
We are excited to inform you that Sigma Alpha Mu Fraternity has just entered into a strategic partnership with ViewYou to provide career networking services to our members. This is the ultimate in online job networking, and we are among the first of international fraternities to offer this career service.
Those of you who are looking for employment can now post your resumes along with self-produced video clips and other key personal and professional information on your own private landing page. Instead of just sending your resume and a cover letter along with hundreds of other applicants, you can refer potential employers to your own personal URL/link, too. This will give you a competitive advantage if you're looking for a post-graduation job or even just an internship.
This service is open to students and alumni alike and includes tips and tricks for finding employment!
SAM has negotiated a 60% discount with ViewYou. For the small cost of only $12 per year, you'll get the "PLUS" profile service (normally a $30/year cost). This is an amazing value that will help you launch your career.
Those companies and/or alumni who are looking to hire an SAM member can now register for free and have access to a landing page that contains the profiles of all registered SAM members. They can filter their selection of hundreds of Sammies by geography, collegiate major, or just about any criteria that's included in a profile.
