How to Participate in the City-Based Recruiting Days:
1. We have a site in each of the cities where the interviews will take place. It is your responsibility to get to each of the locations. If you do not live in the particular city in which you are interested, remember to consider travel expenses (flight, train, hotel). Can you realistically arrange to get to that city (or cities)? Look into opportunities for sharing rides and accommodations to decrease expenses.
2. Research the opportunities and the employers. Don't forget to look at the SLAC websites, the employer website, and any other information you can access on the internet. To search by city, Click on the "Jobs & Internships Search" on the top bar. On the left side, under "More Searches", click on " "Recruiting Day/Event Search".
3. Seriously assess your interest in and your ability to accept an interview with each organization at each recruiting day site before submitting materials (resume plus other required materials). Because 14 schools participate, it is extremely difficult to make changes once interviews times are selected. Decide on the cities and organizations in which you are interested.
BY SUBMITTING, YOU ARE MAKING A COMMITMENT TO ACCEPT THE INTERVIEW(S) IF YOU ARE SELECTED. DO NOT apply through the on-line system if you DO NOT plan to attend a recruiting day.
4. You may submit materials for any or all of the cities, to as many employers as you like.
5. Applying for all cities will be done on-line. Do not apply off-line directly to the employer if you plan to participate in the event. If you cannot attend the event, you should apply off-line.
