NEW BENEFIT: QuietAgent.com
In partnership with the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce, Benedictine University's Career Development Office and Office of Alumni Relations are happy to offer a free link to QuietAgent.com. This site will allow you to seek out job opportunities and it offers a privacy-assured two-way matching system, all free of charge to you. To use this system, you complete the profile and will receive a report entailing what jobs your interests/skills/experience/education might be best suited for. This profile is then made available to employers. "Employers create shortlists based on the detailed career information and settings articulated by job seekers, and then invite them to apply to appropriately matched opportunities. Job seekers can choose to accept or decline invitations or to block companies from contacting them again. A job seeker's private information is ONLY released to an employer if a job seeker chooses to accept an opportunity invitation."
