Career Services for Students

Admissions & Career Counseling

The intent of the Admissions Office staff is to help students achieve their career objectives by clarifying their goals, identifying their skills and interests, and making informed career decisions. Specific services include career counseling, placement testing, individual interest inventory and assessment, employment outlook for specific occupations, program entrance requirements, and costs.

The Career Services function is performed by the Career Services Specialist. Specific services include career counseling, career resource library through various computer systems, career referrals, and distribution of career planning and development literature. Annual Career Fairs are held and periodically interviews with specific companies are held on campus.

Career Services

The Career Services Department maintains an internet program for students and alumni looking for careers and for employers with career opportunities. For assistance, individuals should contact the Career Services Specialist at 770-533-7009. In order to maintain contact with graduates, follow-up services are conducted. Surveys are distributed to graduates as well as to employers to gather some follow-up information on whether students are achieving educational objectives and receiving the skills they need to become successful.

Career Services for Employers

Lanier Technical College’s Career Services Department works to help community employers find qualified employees among Lanier Technical College’s highly trained pool of students and graduates.

Among the employer resources that Career Services provides is access to Lanier Technical College’s Career Connections job posting system. This is where recruiters can connect directly with students and manage on-campus events easier than ever before. The system gives recruiters smart tools to easily organize and evaluate candidate information in real-time so they can hire smarter and faster.
