I'm looking for seasonal employment this summer and was hoping to get a job that relates to my field of study.

I'm a 3rd year Bcomm student majoring in Finance with a Minor in Business Law. I am attending the U of A right now and am able to work either in Calgary or in Edmonton.

Anybody know of any positions available anywhere around town?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I got a job at EPCOR here in Edmonton. The pay is pretty good and it'll be a great experience. It's just a summer term as a junior financial modelling analyst.

If you want some information then PM me. I hunted for a little while and got quite a bit of information.
