Employer Testimonials

We have had the pleasure of working with Linda Rae and the Career Services team at Springfield College for several years now. We are most interested in connecting with students in your Doctorate of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, and Certified Athletic Training programs, as we hire those disciplines here at Eastern Rehabilitation Network/Hartford Hospital. We have had the pleasure of meeting with your students at various Career Fairs held on campus, as well as in the allied health/therapy building. Displaying company information and answering questions has enabled students to learn more about us as they search for career opportunities when they are ready to begin their professional careers.

We have found your students to be well prepared based on the pertinent questions concerning our company, providing professional quality resumes, and demonstrating good communication/presentation skills as they begin to market themselves to prospective employers. We have met many of your students over the years, and are happy to report hiring several of them. This in turn has resulted in referrals for additional hires which has been beneficial to our company.

We look forward to continuing our relationship with Springfield College’s Career Center in the future and meeting with your students as they look to begin their careers in the therapy/athletic training fields. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to submit this testimonial.

"The Springfield College Career Center was an integral element of my educational experience. I found the staff to be extremely helpful with all facets of the career search process. Now that I have transitioned to the other end of the continuum, the Career Center is a tremendous resource when identifying qualified candidates in the Sport Management field."
