PES-Careers is for students pursuing a power engineering career. This on-line service helps students connect with employers offering full-time and part-time job opportunities as well as career experiences just for students (such as internships). PES-Careers is a free service from IEEE PES. While in school, students are also encouraged to become student members of IEEE PES, to get involved in local PES chapters, and to use IEEE PES services. Students should consider maintaining an IEEE PES membership after they graduate.

Students can choose the approach to using PES-Careers that fits their preferences. There are two basic approaches.

• Searcher. With this approach, students use PES-Careers to search for job opportunities by looking at employer profiles and reviewing job postings. They can have notices of position postings emailed to them based on selected criteria. They can even apply for jobs through PES-Careers if they have uploaded their resumes.

• Find Me. If students choose to allow employer viewing of their profiles and resumes, then employers can find them using the PES-Careers' search engine. Using PES-Careers' email system, employers can contact students to ask them to apply.
