"Interviewers would be able 10 see the skills
of the person they would be hiring,” she said. “It
could add a more personal touch than pen-and
paper resumes. It would also be more effective
for students applying for jobs at great distances."
The videotaping would be optional, she said.
Ellers is also looking for ways to instill profes
sionalism in students before their senior year by
providing topical seminars to prepare students
for a career.
"Teachers assume a major role in a commun
ity,” she said. “I’d like to get hiring officials to
talk about the community as well as the job.”
She said she hopes students will look at the
overall situation and not its location.
Ellers said she does not want the work of the
Career Planning and Placement Center to end
with placement.
"I’d like to set up a system of follow-up
research on graduates — where they go, how
long they stay.”
She said she hopes to use the feedback to
further improve the services of the office.

Janet Ellers begins her newjob today, helping
students find employment. Ellers will be assist
ant director of the Career Planning and Place
ment Center on the second floor of the Nebraska
Union.
“It will be something new to work in adminis
tration,” Ellers said. "It will be a challenge.”
Ellers has been a faculty member of Teachers
College for the last 11 years. She will continue to
teach one class a year in the department of
special education and communication disorders
at the Barkley Memorial Center on East Campus.
As assistant director, Ellers will be in charge
of teacher placement, working with UNL gradu
ates who are entering the job market. She is
available for individual counseling and will help
students set up credential files, develop inter
viewing skills and write resumes. She also will
be in charge of the teachers’ interview fair in the
spring. However, these new duties do not mean a
complete change from her old position, she said.
“I consider it an extension of what I have been
doing — teacher preparation,” Ellers said. “I
look forward to seeing the efforts of the class
room come to fruition. It’s like the icing on the
cake.”
Supervising student teachers has given Ellers
“a good look at what schools are looking for in
teachers," she said. Ellers estimated that she’s
written about 500 references through the years.
‘I consider it an exten
sion of what I have
been doing .... It’s
like the icing on the
cake.’
—Ellers
“I’ve made a lot of good contacts due to the
references and (an give good guidance to the
students as to whom to list for references,” she
said.
Ellers sid she would like to bring creativity
and innovation to the office, including the use of
videotapes of student teaching.
