Athlete Connections Launches an Innovative Tool to Increase Student-Athletes Long-Term Success
Orlando, FL, October 11, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Athlete Connections, announces the launch of its Online Career Center, an innovative online system designed to assist current and former student-athletes in the transition from athletics to the workforce.
The new Online Career Center at www.athleteconnections.com was designed exclusively for student-athletes and provides access to all the tools and resources necessary to give them the upper hand in their job search once their playing career is over. Student-athletes will be able to create a personal account, upload their resumes, search through the many job postings and apply for jobs. At the same time, employers will have an opportunity to post jobs, search the resume database and directly contact candidates.
"Student-athletes represent a tremendous but largely untapped pool of young leaders who are disciplined, motivated and experienced in dealing with adversity and competitive situations," said Dan Cross, Founder/CEO of Athlete Connections Foundation. "We are thrilled to introduce our new, online career center and continue to deliver on our mission of preparing student-athletes for the ultimate game of their life."
"I can’t thank Athlete Connections enough for the support, mentorship, networking and employment opportunities they provided me. I urge all current and former student-athletes to get involved with AC because it will provide each and every one of you with the tools you need to find YOUR perfect career!" – Melissa Amado, Graduate of University of Tennessee, 2008
The Athlete Connections network works with NCAA schools to host Student-Athlete career events where employers can meet potential candidates face-to-face, to discuss a full time position, an internship or perhaps to develop a mentorship that can later become a successful employer/employee relationship.
