DePaul University Career Center #DepaulUIP Calling all aggressive, tech-savvy business students looking for a part-time internship!
If you are considering working at a startup after graduation, why not get your feet wet and see what it’s all about, pre-graduation? OneWed.com is a venture capital-backed internet startup, known as the ultimate source for online wedding planning. Our latest technolog...y platform is a first-of-its-kind wedding social network, and as you know, social networking is the way of the future. Additionally, OneWed boasts the largest searchable directory of local wedding vendors, from small mom and pop florists and bakers, to nationally-known online bridal boutiques and wedding venues. Our intern will enjoy flexible hours (15-20/week), and will spearhead a project to analyze, and combat, vendor churn. Reducing vendor churn is key to building upon OneWed’s existing recurring revenue model, so this is certainly not a “make coffee and make copies” kind of internship! The intern will likely be spending a fair amount of time working with our customers (wedding vendors) over the phone encouraging them to make their listings look better, get more reviews from brides, upload more pictures, etc. Sound interesting??? E-mail your resume to support@onewed.com

The hospitality, business services, retail, banking, telecommunications, health care and defense verticals are the top industries currently hiring based on a survey of active job advertisements from the nations’ top job boards. Of course overall advertised openings were down a bit this week due to the holiday. Hospitality continued strong hiring, with Pizza Hut, Cracker Barrel, and Hilton among the top hiring firms this week. Business Service firms IBM, Accenture, Deloitte, Booz Allen, CSC, and SAIC continue to be in the top hiring firms, partially due to support of federal government and DOD contracts. Retail hiring is remains strong despite the holiday season at it’s end, with Blockbuster and Sears in the top 10, as retailers firmed up their holiday coverage. Banking continued strong this week as JPMorganChase registered #7 on the hiring list, and Wells Fargo continued its ranking in the top hiring companies. Telecommunications continued strong hiring, with AT&T, and Verizon still strong on hiring. Health care hiring has been strong for the past quarter, led by UnitedHealth, HCR Manorcare, Gentiva Health, Amedisys Home Health, HGI Healthcare, Aegis Therapies, Quest Diagnostics, and Kindred Healthcare among the health care top hiring companies Defense companies remained top hiring firms led by US Army, Raytheon, General Dynamics, and BAE making the list. Based on surveys of US job advertisements in the top job board aggregators, the following companies added the most job openings: Total Job Openings by direct advertisers (Recruiters & Staffing Companies not included): Pizza Hut IBM Blockbuster AT&T UnitedHealth Group U.S. Army JPMorgan Chase Raytheon Sears General Dynamics HCR ManorCare BAE Systems Accenture Deloitte Kmart Booz Allen Hamilton Gentiva Verizon Wireless Murphy USA Snap-on Tools Food Lion Wells Fargo Liberty Mutual Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Amedisys Home Health FedEx Combined Insurance Hgi Healthcare SAIC Century 21 Real Estate Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Aegis Therapies Quest Diagnostics Hilton Hotels RadioShack Kindred Healthcare Fifth Third Bank Allstate Juniper Networks Golden Living Centers Bed Bath and Beyond Inc.

Telecommunications remained strong for two months straight AT&T and Verizon continuing as employment advertisers. Defense continued near the top US Army, and General Dynamics included in the top new employment advertisers this week. However, the number of defense positions and the number of top hiring defense firms took a significant dive this week … possibly due to slower holiday employment advertising.
