The computerized scheduling program takes into account student class and work schedules, student preferences for particular employers, and any hiring criteria required by employers. Students rank employers they would like to interview with and whose hiring criteria they meet. Students whose credentials do not match the employers' hiring criteria may submit resumes for review by the employers. However, only students whose credentials match the employers' hiring criteria may bid for that employer's interview schedule. Employers will have the opportunity to review the resumes of those students who do not meet their standard hiring criteria and they may add students to the interview schedule.
Students research the employers to decide which employers match their interests.
Eligible students assign a preference number to each employer with whom they would like to interview. Students rank their employer preferences from those in which they are most interested to least interested. Among the students who meet the hiring criteria for the given employer, the computer will first search by student preference numbers and then search by student availability. A few employers will require students to submit writing samples, transcripts and references at this time. The computer program will then create the interview schedules.
