Some recruiters request an open interview schedule while others prefer pre-select interviews.
Pre-selects are interview situations where the recruiter reviews resumes and possible transcripts prior to the interview day, selecting those students to be interviewed. A pre-select interview schedule assures that the recruiter's time is being spent with candidates who meet the employer's requirements. While you may sign up to interview with any employer coming on campus, you may or may not be selected for interviews in pre-select situations. With open interviewing schedules, you will be interviewed if you have signed up in one of the available time slots.
