Seeking A Career Opportunity in Indianapolis!

[Ashley Williams]

As a somewhat recent IU graduate I am looking to take my career to the next level and am diligently seeking a position in the Social Services or Administrative fields. With an education in Human Development and Family Studies, I have gained a broad spectrum of knowledge in the factors surrounding an individual's psychological, social, and emotional growth. I'm currently looking forward to finding a position in which I can apply my knowledge and interest, on a daily basis, in order to positively affect the lives of others.

If anyone in this great community knows of any leads or opportunities, please let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Ashely Williams

Congratulations on your recent graduation!

As you are well aware, the job market has changed from only a few years ago, and finding opportunities requires more creativity and industry than ever. Engaging others on Smaller Indiana is a great example of a unique approach.

You can also network at public events. The Smaller Indiana party after the conference tomorrow would be a great place to connect with others. For social services, be sure to join the Non Profit Newsletter (http://www.nonprofitcareercenter.org/). There is also a career fair at the Sheraton downtown on July 20. You also might want to speak to a recruiter, such as Michele Urban at Ncompass (http://www.ncompass-group.com/).

Best of luck and keep up the good work!

For social services you might also try http://www.indy.gov . You may have tried this already, but I do know of a few people with your same degree that now work for the state government.

Best of luck!
