Both the University of Hawai'i at Manoa Shidler College of Business and JAIMS are committed to your successful
transition from the classroom to career. Because the backgrounds
and objectives of students differ considerably, the specific job
search process is customized to the goals of each individual.

The JAIMS alumni network of graduates around the
world regularly provides employment leads via e-mail to graduating students
and alumni. Prospective and current students may correspond with alumni
who have similar interests and backgrounds, using alumni contact information
that is maintained by JAIMS. In addition, employment leads in various
countries are also frequently posted by staff, faculty, alumni, and
friends of JAIMS who are members of the JAIMS
Family Forum, an electronic listserv. With permission, JAIMS makes
referrals when contacted by executive recruiting firms and companies
interested in graduates.
While employment at the student's internship company
after graduation is not the objective of the internship, in some
cases graduates have been offered employment with their internship
companies or with other companies via business contacts established
during the internship.
Students are encouraged to use the resources of the Shidler
College of Business Office
of Internships and Career Development,
which offers personalized resume assistance and career advice. Job and
internship opportunities, both local and international, are also posted
by the office via e-mail to graduate business students.
The University of Hawai‘i
at Manoa's Center for Career Development
and Student Employment offers
a wide variety of programs and services for students and alumni. This
office provides advising and counseling, job skills workshops, job vacancy
listings, employer on-campus interviews, a career library, resume editing,
and videotaped practice interviews.
Students fluent in Japanese can participate
in certain recruiting events sponsored by Japanese organizations
and held on the U.S. mainland, in Japan, and elsewhere in Asia.
For example, Japan-focused MBA students have attended the annual
Los Angeles Career Forum co-sponsored by DISCO International, Inc.
