Mrs. Orsborne has been employed for an eight month period from February until the end of September to man a student employment center at the office. She is a ”graduate assistant", a recent university graduate hired ‘by Manpower because she has recent experience in hunting for her dwn summer jobs. Mrs. Orsborne said that-her role is, through public relations and visits to prospectlve em- ployers, to encourage employ- ers to hire summer students. Both high school and post» i secondary students are wel» . come to register at the student employment center, said Mrs. Orsborne, who has already registered approximately 90 students who are searching for summer employment. When students come to the center to register, MI‘S. Ors- born? interviews them, asking them what type of summer work they wish to do and what experience they have to Offer to ‘ an employer. The student employment center is also an information center, said Mrs. Orsborne. Students are encouraged not to “sit back and wait for therphone to ring", but to continue looking for employment on their own. Registering at the center is “just a step, although hopefully a big step" in the search for a summer job. The center has information about potential local summer employment. both in the private sector and Within provincial and federal grant programs. Major employers ofstudents in this area are industry, r summer . employment early seasonal agricultural work in- eluding work at the canning factories and tourism said Mrs, Orsborne, Federal and provin- cial grant programs also create a number of jobs in the area, she said. Mrs. Orsborne could not be certain how many area agencies had applied for grants under the new federal “Young Canada Works" program; she said however that she believed a.‘ number of local agencies had. l applied. Approval of applica- tions to this program will be finalized by the third week in March, said Mrs. Orsborne. She said that any grants approved . in this area will be required to hire their student workers through her office. The student center will be open for at least one Saturday afternoon in March, said Mrs. Orsborne. This will give univerâ€" sxty students who cannot get to the office during regular office hours an opportunity to regi~ ster. A program in creative job search techniques will be held at Prince Edward Collegiate ‘ Institute later this spring. said Mrs. Orsborne. She said that many young students need some advice on how to look for employment. Some younger students. who have little chance of finding a full-time summer job partici- pate in an odd jobs program called “rentâ€"a-kid". said Mrs. , Orsborne. Area residents can . phone the student center during the summer months and - hire a student for a few hours or days to do odd jobs around the home. Many students prefer the informality of doing occasxonai jobs, and those who work hard often make it into “almost a full~time thing.” said Mrs. i Orsborne. .
