On-Campus Recruiting: Where the Employer Comes to You

On-campus recruiting (OCR) is an easy and convenient way to interview for a job that you are interested in, with the addition of the “home court” advantage of the employer coming to you. It can be hard, for some students to make it to interviews off-campus due to travel abilities or busy schedules. On-campus recruiting is an easy way to resolve both of these issues. Interviewing for a job can be a nerve-racking process. However, being able to speak with someone right here in the Career and Professional Development Center can make the process a little easier.

On-campus recruiting is a great method for searching for jobs. For one, the employer is already interested in students from Nichols and the company would also have a good connection with the college. Taking advantage of OCR opportunities will only benefit you in the process.

Don’t know where to look for on-campus recruiting information? Follow these quick and easy steps:

  1. Go to your myNichols portal. On the right-hand side of the screen you will see your Bookmarks section, on this list the very last option is Road to Success. This is where you need to be!2. On the front page of Road to Success, in the top task bar, you will see the “On-Campus Recruiting Schedule” tab. By putting your cursor over this tab you will see a drop down menu with two options: “sign-up for interviews I qualify for” and “VIEW ALL Upcoming Interviews.”

3. If you wish to sign up for interviews, you can choose the “sign-up for interviews I qualify for” option which will show you what options you have based on your Road to Success profile.

4. The “VIEW ALL Upcoming Interviews” option will give you a list of all of the companies coming to campus. You can also search for specific companies or positions by using the “Keyword” search box.

It is important to make sure that your profile with Road to Success is complete and up-to-date with all the information that is needed in order to qualify for the interview. This could include anything from a resume and cover letter, to recommendation letters. To access your profile, go to your Road to Success home page and place your cursor on the “My Account” option in the upper left hand corner of the screen.
