Keeping Things Symple

The Center for Co-op and Career Development uses Symplicity, a web-based management system, to handle our job postings, among other important functions.

Please note: The office does not check, validate or guarantee the accuracy of the job information presented, nor does it make any representations or endorsements about the background or reputation of the employers. Potential applicants are encouraged to perform their own investigation of the employers and employment opportunities presented.

In addition to job postings, students and graduates can also use Symplicity to store their own documents, including copies of resumes, cover letters and writing samples. Further, students and graduates can access important documents that are stored in the “Document Library” in Symplicity. The Center for Co-op and Career Development also uses Symplicity to coordinate recruitment programs, job fairs and to schedule events and interviews.

Instructions for Searching for Job Listings
To access job postings on Symplicity, select “Jobs” tab at top of the page.

To get the most out of your job search on Symplicity, here are some helpful tips:

  • Key Words: This field is self-explanatory, but be careful not to limit your search by being too specific (e.g. “family law” is a good search term, but “child custody” is too specific).
  • Location: Type in City
  • Position Type: You can search by position type, but ignore any category that is listed as “Co-op.”
  • Employer Type: Ignore this field. It is for internal use only.
  • To ensure that you are not missing any relevant job opportunities, you may want to search all jobs (i.e., no filters) in the database periodically.
