The Capital Consortium will be held on February 5th, but you must apply online for interviews by January 6th.
1. To apply for interviews, go to http://capcon.experience.com/
2. Click on “Create an Account” at the bottom left.
3. Enter in the “Access token word” which your career office will provide.
4. Under “Register for an Account”, fill in all of the data fields and click “Register”. Keep in mind, for each program that your college uses the Experience system, you will need a unique username (no duplicates allowed).
5. Under “Please complete your profile”, the system will ask you to fill out a few required profile fields (red dot next to the required fields). Then click “Next”. It is very important to have your email and phone numbers correct. This is how we can reach you for interviews.
6. Next section is “Your Experience Preferences”. Decide if you want emails and newsletters about other Experience programs and services. Then fill in the required fields in the Personalization section. If you choose not to answer any of these questions, there is an “I’d rather not say” option. Click Next.
7. This brings you to a Welcome page. If you are ready to upload your resume and other materials, click “Go” beside “Upload a Resume”. If you are not ready to upload, click on the “Home” link at the top of the page. From now on, you will come directly to this page when you log in using the username and password you created.
8. There is a special search link set up for students on your home page:
CapCon 2010 Employers.
When you click on this link, it will show you all the CapCon employers with application deadlines of January 5th. You do not need to use the Newest Jobs link.
9. If you click on the name of the employer, it will give you the overview of the organization. If you click on the job title link, it will link you to the job(s) for which the employer is hiring. In the job title section, you will find the complete contact information to address your cover letter and, at the bottom of the page, the application materials needed to apply to the position. Look carefully, as many employers also require transcripts or writing samples. When ready, this is where you apply for the position.
Uploading Your Materials
1. Go to “Documents” in the gray box across the top and click on “Upload a Document”.
2. Select the type of document you wish to upload, and click on “Next”.
3. Click on “Browse”, find your document, click “Open”, and then click on “Upload”.
4. When your status says ready, your document is uploaded.
5. Follow these instructions to upload your resume, cover letter, transcript, and writing sample. You can have more than one resume and all of our cover letters in the system at the same time. Transcripts should be uploaded under “Other”.
6. IMPORTANT: By uploading, you HAVE NOT applied to any jobs!
