Recruiting Guidelines for Employers

To use the University Career Center resources for posting jobs and recruiting students, companies must adhere to Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) guidelines. The UCC provides services employers who do not unlawfully discriminate in the selection of employees on the basis of national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other basis prohibited by applicable law.

Employers who use our services and participate in our recruitment activities must comply with the Principles for Professional Conduct outlined by the National Association of Colleges & Employers. This information is available at http://www.naceweb.org/principles/ 

The University Career Center is committed to connecting students with professional and educational work experiences that will benefit students.  Network/Multi-level marketing companies are prohibited from using the University Career Center to recruit students for commission only employment and internships.  Salaried or hourly positions for the corporate divisions of these companies are permitted.  Furthermore, companies that require an enrollment fee or the purchase of equipment or inventory for resale are not permitted to use the Career Center.  Organizations offering franchise opportunities are also prohibited. 

Companies that offer commission-only full-time positions must disclose this information when posting a position or recruiting on-campus.  Commission-only internships must provide specific information on how and when students are paid during the experience.

Companies that require further training and licensure paid by the candidate must disclose this information when posting a position or recruiting on-campus.

Third party recruiters working on behalf of a client must disclose the company they represent and provide a detailed job description for each position.  Third party recruiters may not charge applicants any fees.

The University Career Center staff will not screen applicants for the employer.  Instead, we will promote opportunities and when appropriate, refer resumes of students who have indicated interest in the position and fit qualifications such as major and GPA.

Companies who want to post internships must be willing to complete University paperwork for students wishing to earn academic credit from their respective academic departments.  While the Career Center will post your internship, the academic internship coordinators for each department will determine whether a student may receive credit for the internship position.  For-profit organizations with unpaid internship should adhere to the policies set forth by the Fair Labor Standards Act.

For the University Career Center to promote your on-campus interview, we must have a completed file for your event at least 2 weeks prior to the interview date that must include:  a specific interview schedule and a detailed job description that includes job duties, company description, and qualifications.

The University Career Center is not responsible for recruitment materials that are displayed and/or left unattended in public areas. 

To post a job or internship through the University Career Center, each employer must provide a detailed job description. 

The Career Center reserves the right to refuse recruitment privileges to any company whose policies and/or services do not fall in line with the educational values and mission of Georgia College & State University.
