 "The Student Employment Office (SEO) at College of the Canyons (COC) is directed by Mr. Yasser Issa, who is friendly and always ready to make the process for students and faculty seamless and easy, so all of us benefit. I have personally experienced that students who are employed at the college are often more committed and driven to succeed in their classes, raising retention rates. The process for hiring is simple and quick and the SEO staff is always available to help, including matching students with an employer for the best fit for their job skills. I highly recommend the COC SEO for all your student employment hiring needs."
