On-Campus Recruiting Visits

On-Campus Recruiting Visits

Employers who are interested in coming to campus to interview students are provided accommodations.

The Career Center diligently strives to ensure that the recruiting environment on campus is favorable and pleasant for employers and students. To accomplish a positive recruiting experience for employers and students, we make a conscious effort to complete all on-campus recruiting arrangements at least four weeks prior to the visit. On-campus recruiting benefits employers and students in that they both get the opportunity to make a personable impression upon the other.
