SUCCESSFUL

BYU RECRUITERS... JOB POSTINGS   There are specific guidelines for job posting on campus. “As an employer, recruiter, or other professional interested in connecting with BYU students and alumni through UCS, you must agree to abide by the policies contained in our recruiting guidelines.” >> careers.byu.edu

Include details when posting positions on Handshake:majors, skills, job functions. This will assure that students interested in your posting will find it by searching under specific criteria. >> careers.byu.edu

>>> The Recruiter Support Team (801) 422-6932 recruiting@byu.edu

ON-CAMPUS INTERVIEWS   Schedule on-campus interviews at least 4-6 weeks in advance.   Attach a job position as soon as your interview date is approved.   Use student ambassadors to connect with prospective candidates. Some companies bring alumni to recruit on campus which is a valuable tool in marketing your brand and communicating your culture.   Most interview rooms hold up to two recruiters. Please contact a recruiter support team in advance if you require a large room. >> careers.byu.edu

INFORMATION SESSIONS   Submit requests early to get the best location and best student turnout. At least 1 month in advance is recommended to allow enough time for advertising and promotion.   Hold information sessions that last no longer than one hour… and providing something to eat always helps.

CAREER FAIRS   When registering, complete the "Employer Profile" in detail to have the best reach during the fair. Students are able to search employers registered for the fair by looking at the job postings associated with your company and majors or skills desired. >> careers.byu.edu

Be sure to fill out the “Equipment Requests” in detail when submitting requests on Handshake.   Email your BYU Recruiter Support Team member a digital advertisement soon after the information session has been approved in order to begin promoting your event.   Post at least one position on Handshake before the info session so students know what types of positions you offer. >> careers.byu.edu >> If you are a local employer, hold information sessions a week before or after the General Career & STEM Fairs to avoid competition with out-of-state employers.
