On Campus Recruiting

The On Campus Recruiting Program is designed to bring employers and students together for internship and full-time job opportunities. It offers graduating students the opportunity to interview on and off campus with employers looking to hire St. John's graduates. Representatives from many organizations come from a variety of fields such as business, non-profit, government and education.

The program is open to both undergraduate and graduate students.  Undergraduate students can take part in this program beginning in their junior year.  Students can start interviewing during the Fall 2009 semester and continue through the Spring 2010 semester.

How to Get Involved With the Program

  • Attend a required On Campus Recruiting Orientation seminar.
  • Complete the  On Campus Recruiting On-line Tutorial. The Tutorial is a PDF presentation - you must have Adobe Reader in order to view it.
  • Have your resume reviewed and approved by a Career Counselor.
  • Register and post your resume on St. John's CareerLink.

How to Use the Program

  • Access CareerLink daily to submit resumes to companies recruiting on campus (pre-select) as well as for interviews off campus (resume drops) and to see if you've been selected for any on campus interviews.
  • Check your e-mail daily to hear from employers and learn important program updates from the Career Center.

How to Get The Most From the Program

  • Research each company you are interested in by clicking on the blue hyperlink/company name from the Job Description.
  • Attend open and closed information sessions when offered.
  • Schedule a Mock Interview
  • Arrive for your interview early and in proper interview attire.
  • Send a thank you letter.

The organizations that participate are quite selective and the competition for positions are keen. Therefore, students are strongly encouraged to make use of the Career Center's job search programs and other services.
