The Career Development Office helps students and young alumnae (up to 5yrs out) connect with employers who currently have full-time job opportunities and internships. Graduating students may review available job opportunities, research participating organizations' web sites, submit resumes, and sign up for interviews.

Over 83 employers participated in On-Campus and Off- Campus Recruiting Programs in 2007-2008, visiting the CDO throughout the year to conduct over 200 interviews with students for full-time employment after graduation. Also during 2007-2008, more than 30 employers participated in On-Campus Recruiting for internships.

Employers also have the option to conduct interviews at their own workplaces; the CDO collects student resumes for these employers. This service provides targeted recruitment efforts and acts as the initial contact point by advertising positions for employers and compiling student resumes.

Many employers hold late afternoon and early evening infosessions on campus; these programs provide students with information about employers in an informal setting before the interview process begins. Schedules of upcoming sessions are available on the E-Access Web site.
