Bakersfield College’s annual Career Day was held on April 28 inside the Campus Center Fireside Room and cafeteria with an estimated 30 businesses and schools in attendance.
Eric Menor, a representative of Career Services Center, commented on what CSC does for follow-ups.
Speaking of the application process, “In this economy, 70 to 80 percent will follow through, especially if they need a job,” Menor said.
Darlene Sharp, general manager of one of the AMF bowling lanes here in Bakersfield, said, “Last year I would say that about 150 people minimum [applied].”
She said her response time may take her “a few weeks to go through all of the applications.” AMF is expecting at least another 250 applications after this event.
Yushai Chang, a manager of the Gosford Road location of Panda Express, also mentioned, “They [the applicants] will be notified [as early as] within the week.”
