Job Connect

Job Connect is a job listing system for employers to post job opportunities for CCM students and graduates, as well as Workforce Development and Women’s Center clients.  CCM faculty and staff may also have access to this system in one of two ways:

• Administrative access – full access with administrative rights and screens.
• Student access – screens and access match what the students sees.  This seems to be the preferred access by most.

If you would like an account, please email cmenzer@ccm.edu to get set up.
