Refer Employers
Career Services appreciates your support in referring
employers who may contact you in an effort to identify
students from your academic disciplines for internships
or full-time placement.
We offer a variety of services depending on how quickly
employers need to identify candidates and fill their
openings: On-line job listings
and resume referrals are recommended
if the employers needs are immediate. On-campus
interviewing, Career Fairs &
Forums are services that require advanced planning
and registration. Consequently, they are effective recruiting
activities for planned or projected openings. An overview
of these services and information on our internship
program is provided below.
We appreciate your recommendations on employers who
may be interested in participating in any of our activities.
We also encourage your participation in any of our events!
Career Fairs and Forums are valuable opportunities for
employers to meet many students in a short period of
time and for students to obtain information on what
types of career opportunities are available in the different
fields.
Each year Career Services sponsors two major Career
Fairs in the Spring and Fall and many smaller Career
Forums throughout the year. Approximately 1800 students
attend each Career Fair. While Career Fairs are major
events with a broad representation of companies, Forums
are usually smaller events that target specific industries
and bring those employers to the campus to meet with
students from those disciplines. Last year Career Services
sponsored Forums for MBA students, Engineering students,
Education Majors, and several others areas.
If the employer has several weeks to identify
candidates, then they may wish to set up a visit
to the campus. This program works best with
at least 6-8 weeks lead time. During that time,
the visit is promoted and students are able
to view employer information, view the job description
and submit their resume through or new on-line
recruiting system called Panther JOBlink. Panther JOBlink
enables students to manage all their interview
activity including submitting their resume and
signing up for interviews.
To set up an on-campus visit, employers should
contact Carmen Rosado, On-Campus Recruiting
Coordinator at (305)348-6285 or via email at
rosadoc@fiu.edu
