It's crunch time for graduating seniors entering the workforce.
A tough economy has some students concerned for their career plans. "It's scary for the simple fact you don't know how many openings a place may have or if you're going to be everything that that company needs,"Said Jonathan Green, a Senior at USA.

Despite the slump the USA Career Services Center says industries like business, health care and education are still hiring."So I think they're jobs out there but our students are going to have to be much more proactive and very prepared,"Said Bevley Green, a Career Services Counselor.

Students can search for jobs and get help with their resume at the Career Services Center Monday through Friday.
They can also visit the career center's website.
