Career Bridge

At RRC Polytech, we are now using a new employment services platform called Career Bridge. This website is a great way for employers to post co-op jobs, as well as permanent/temporary and part-time employment opportunities for our current and graduated students.

We ask our Employers to please sign up and post jobs themselves, as the new platform is quite user-friendly. Please contact Career Services with questions pertaining to Career Bridge and job postings.

Once a job posting closes, all applications will be forwarded to the employer. Employers can then peruse applications, schedule interviews and hire the successful interviewee(s).

Feel free to share this information with colleagues and industry partners. We know the work force needs knowledgeable, industry-minded employees for the 2024 construction season. Our students and their mandatory nine credit hour co-op work terms provide a great option for employers to fill that need.

We look forward to working with you this 2023-24 co-op season!
