“I am convinced after viewing my revised cover letter and resume that you are a magician and I am in awe of you. You brought in all of the information that I had provided to you, simplified it, and made it into something I would be proud to submit to a potential employer. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for seeing me for who I am.”
-Alicia R. '99

Students can contact us by email at CareerServices@BristolCC.edu or by phone at 774.357.2959.

Share Employer Contacts

Employers are often interested in engaging directly with faculty and existing curriculum. Career Services staff are happy to refer employers to faculty and hope faculty will also refer them to Career Services! Referring an employer to Career Services encourages them to consider Bristol as a resource to find talent. They have the ability to post jobs, participate in job fairs, set up a recruitment table, or work with Career Services staff to organize a presentation, conduct on-campus interviews, and more.

Attend Career Events

Career Services welcomes faculty and staff to all recruiting events as an opportunity to network with employers and to see students in action. Upcoming events are listed on our Events and Workshops Calendar.
