Job Placement and Career Planning

throughout their entire career as well. There is no charge to students, graduates, or salons utilizing the school’s job
placement services.

posted for students. Students and graduates interested in job placement postings should contact Student Services,
who will interview and advise students on the opportunities available. Interviews may be arranged at the student’s
request.

Throughout the Cosmetology, Skin Care, Barbering and Nail programs, a salon readiness program is offered. This
program will help students to prepare a resume, prepare for an interview, and create a personal portfolio of
accomplishments.
