Message from Susie Vaks at Google

Hello CCC&TI Students!

We are very proud of our graduating students from our CCC&TI programs and
are excited about the opportunities that are presented to them because of
the education they have received. So far our graduating classes with the
new skills that they have learned have been able to get promotions/raises
with their current positions, offered positions at CCC to teach our classes
and have the options to pursue higher levels of education to get more
training and knowledge. To add to the all the wonderful opportunities
available to our students we are happy to announce that because of the
skills our students have learned Google has hired some of our top students
from our summer and fall classes.

Through Google's rigorous interview process that is taking in candidates
from all of the country a batch of our students who applied from CCC&TI fit
their needs culturally as well technically. We know there might be some
disappointed folks out there but we don't want anyone to be discouraged.
This is only one of the many opportunities and experiences that will grow as
each student pursues their education goals to further the knowledge that
will ultimately make them more competitive in the job marketplace.
If you would like to apply to other jobs at Google please make sure you
continuously check their website and look for new jobs posted at
http://www.google.com/datacenter/lenoir/jobs.html. If you would like to re-apply and if you feel your skills might meet the requirements for the posted job descriptions then feel free to apply online.

We look forward to bring more opportunities to you and a successful future
for everyone!

WorkKeys Email from Dana

Donna:

I received an email back from Pam Gobel. Pam already sends me the National CRC seal to put on the certificates. I would encourage students to register on www.myworkkeys.com for employers to verify their scores but they are not required to order a National Certificate. Students may call WorkKeys at 1-866-760-1228 with questions. Thanks.

Message from Google

Hello Students!
We are very excited to let everyone know that Google will again be contacting students to go through phone interviews but this time for the Data Technician Assistant position. Yes, as you all are thinking this is earlier than what Google communicated but it is good news for us that they could be looking for people sooner than 2008. Now the interviews for those who have been chosen will be happening only by phone so prepare those communication and interview skills we taught you! Google will be in touch with everyone in the next month letting everyone know their status for those who have completed the course.


Good luck!

Susie
