To Potential Employers

We have another group of Computer Networking and Information Technology students seeking internships, paid or unpaid. They have skills such as server administration, tech support, security, Cisco routing and switching, Web design, coding, and more.

If you have opportunities for the students, please do one or both of these things:

1. Come to the orientation meeting Thurs., Jan. 22 at 5 PM, Science 37, Ocean campus, where you can meet the students seeking jobs

2. Email a job description to me at cnit.197@gmail.com so I can find appropriate candidates and refer them to you

Thanks for helping our students gain work experience!

San Francisco Living Wage Coalition

The Living Wage Coalition has a number of openings for WordPress development, Social Media specialist, and Web App and Small Office security guru.

The Living Wage Coalition is a non-profit that lobbies the Board of Supervisors and others at City Hall to increase the local minimum wage citywide. The main WordPress position will involve making new posts, maintaining the site, adding or updating widgets, and adding video and other new functionality.

They have recently launched a new site and a new social media campaign and need someone to use google analytics and other tools to drive traffic to the site.

They need a new security policy to address increased intern participation. Their server needs a scan and there are still some WordPress related security tasks to do.

If you are especially interested in serving the community through activism, want to network with other college students or like working with non-profits contact Sam!


Tutors Needed for CNIT Classes

CNIT has drop-in tutoring available in SCIE 214.

If you have done well in previous CNIT classes, are friendly and helpful, and have excellent communications skills, this may be a good experience for you.
