Faculty Information

We welcome Simpson College teaching faculty to become partners with Career Services, a division of the Center for Vocation and Integrative Learning (CVIL), in helping students realize their life goals! We  know you play a crucial role in helping students get a sound start in the professional world. Career Services provides support to students as they explore options for service, internships, full-time employment, and graduate school. We also counsel students who want additional assistance in focusing on  a vocation and charting a career path.  

CareerPaths

CareerPaths is the students connection to job announcements and potential employers. An easy-to-use interface to facilitate the job search. 

To set up a faculty/staff account:

  • Go to https://simpson-csm.symplicity.com
  • Click on “Students/Alumni”
  • Click on “Alumni Register”
  • Complete the profile.
    • When you get to the required “Graduation Date” field – enter any graduation date that would classify you as an alumni. This way when we update profile information for current students, your profile will remain in the system as is.
    • In the “Year in School” field, you can designate yourself as “Faculty/Staff”
    • In the “Applicant Type” field, again, enter “Alumni” so that your profile information will remain in the system after updates.
    • If you wish to receive e-mails about job/internship postings or events in your area/field, select “Yes” to the “Email Notification” field.
    • The “Resume Book” field is so that employers can easily collect student resumes when they apply through the system.
  • Create a username that you will use when you sign-in.
  • Shortly after you complete the profile and have been approved, you will receive an e-mail with a password that will allow you to access the Simpson CareerPaths system.

    For questions or assistance with the Simpson CareerPaths system, please contact Erin Swancutt in Career Services at erin.swancutt@simpson.edu or x1742.

  For SC faculty:  Career Services will be happy to come to your classroom to present on vocation and career exploration.  For a detailed description of options available to you go to: http://www.simpson.edu/faculty/teaching/careerdevelopment.html
