Albany, Georgia – Career Services at Albany Technical College has added a more sophisticated and robust platform, Purple Briefcase, for students and employers to connect in Southwest Georgia. The new cloud-based software developed by Ruffalo Noel Levitz (RNL) is smooth and easy to use. Purple Briefcase offers everything students need to prepare for their career search, connect with employers and alumni, and find the best internships and jobs. And it’s not just for students. Employers can post internships and jobs, have access to student profiles and resumes.
“Purple Briefcase is a new innovative cloud software platform that has an easy user interface, and students can create interesting and interactive profiles that can be made visible to employers. Students can also do company searching and favoriting as well as job searches. Another feature we like is a student’s ability to search for internships,” said Judy Jimmerson, Associate Vice President of Career Services.
Area employers can log in and create profiles, posting internships and jobs. Employers have access to student profiles, resumes, and more. Through Albany Tech’s Purple Briefcase, an employer can also manage essential hiring functions like on-campus recruiting and interviewing activities and career fair events.
“The Purple Briefcase software tool is an obvious advantage to Albany Technical College students and the employers in our community as a viable opportunity to connect with potential future employees for job placement and internship opportunities,” stated Dr. Anthony Parker, President of Albany Technical College.
Purple Briefcase user guides have been emailed to many employers in the community, and all students that are currently enrolled at Albany Technical College. The software can be accessed from the ATC website or by searching “Albany Tech Purple Briefcase.” If you prefer, contact Career Development Center at Albany Tech: Judy Jimmerson (jjimmerson@albanytech.edu)at 229.430.3514, Kimberly Haywood (khaywood@albanytech.edu) at 229.430.3939, or Tammy Dobbins (tdobbins@albanytech.edu) at 229.430.0516.
