JobTrax kiosk unveiled in Corbly Hall Lounge
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. – Marshall University’s Lewis College of Business and the Office of Career Services unveiled a Job Trax kiosk in the Corbly Hall Lounge on the Huntington campus Friday, Oct. 2.
The kiosk was given by Ruth E. Butler Executive in Residence John Rulli and will assist business students in finding job opportunities and internships.
“We appreciate his [Rulli’s] spirit of paying back to his alma mater,” said Dr. Chong W. Kim, dean of the college. “Also, I am glad students were able to hear the success story from one of our own. Mr. Rulli had very good advice for students trying to be successful in their careers.”
Rulli, who received his Bachelor of Business Administration from Marshall in 1979, gave the executive in residence lecture after the kiosk was unveiled. He is executive vice president, chief administrative officer and president of Simon Management Group for Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group Inc.
JobTrax is an online database available to employers to post open positions to specifically reach Marshall University students and alumni.
“I hope students take full advantage of the kiosk and other career planning and enhancement services,” said Alissa Sikula, a senior at Marshall. “I … am excited about using the kiosk. It is convenient since most of my classes are here in Corbly.”
