SHA links with hospitalitycareernet.com

Through a joint venture with hospitalitycareernet.com, BU's School of Hospitality Administration students and alumni will be able to access a tool for searching and applying for jobs online. They will also be able to take advantage of other career services, including daily industry news, polls, compensation information, and relocation services.

SHA was selected by HVS Executive Search to be the first hospitality program to participate in this joint Web venture. "Aligning ourselves with HVS and hospitalitycareernet.com will allow our graduates and students access to a wealth of employment possibilities," says Brian Shockley, director of career services for SHA.

Founded in 1981, SHA's program is designed to prepare students for management positions in the hospitality industry. To view the site, go to the careers section at www.bu.edu/sha and then click the BU careernet link.
