Throughout the academic year, employers will conduct on-campus interviews for qualified candidates. Employers often set up recruiting tables prior to these interviews to give prospective candidates the opportunity to drop off their resumes and learn more about their organization. A current on-campus interview schedule is maintained on eRecruiting. Upcoming interviews are also widely advertised on campus and in student publications.
Current job postings are available for review in the Resource Library of the Career Services Office. Our extensive bank of job postings includes part-time and full-time opportunities. These opportunities, from local, national and international organizations, are updated on a regular basis.
