St. Johns Career Service under 'Company' is the official group of Career Services at St. John's University on LinkedIn. The group compliments the ASPIRE Mentor and Job Shadowing programs providing a forum for building strong student-alumni relationships, as well as peer-to-peer connections.
As alumni, employers and friends, we are asking you to volunteer to assist St. John’s students and fellow grads through the career exploration and job search processes. St. John's University LinkedIn page is not a job placement service.
