Placement Service
Job
For
Competition to Be Keen
1959 Grads, Says Cook
This year's graduates will find job competition keen, although the general employment
picture is improving, predicts Donald M. Cook, assistant director of the placement service.
Cook previewed the job situation at the Middle Atlantic Placement Conference for
employers and placement service personnel last week at Pocono Manor.
Student s, especially those
with poorer academic records,
will have to search harder for
o p p o r tunities. Employers are
showing more interest in
scholastic records than in pre•
vious years, he said
"However, a student's records
should show improvement, rather
than a downward slope in
achievement," he said,
Employers are also interested
in how a student has spent his
spare time, if he has worked'or
participated in activities. The
number of activities is not as im
portant as the contribution he has
made to each organization, ac
cording to Cook.
Men with military obligations
will have the hardest time find
ing a job again this year. A
senior should have as much in
formation as possible about his
military status before being in
terviewed.
The fall interview program at,
the placement service shows al
good cross section of employers
in spite of some cancellations, he
said,
Interview schedules for the,
spring semester promise to bell

The recession last spring hit

Some companies cancelled cam

Most '5B graduates did find jobs
