On-Campus Recruiting


A student listens to a recruiter's presentation at an ILR Career FairThe ILR Office of Career Services hosts an active on-campus recruiting program managed through Cornell CareerNet, a web-based service powered by Experience. Employers find on-campus visits to be a very effective way to identify prospective summer interns and full-time hires.

We work with you to make your visit productive. In general we have four interview rooms on site and can accommodate four schedules per day, with each schedule including nine to twelve interviews, depending on length. Some employers set up separate schedules for different positions, while others will combine candidates (for instance, for summer and full-time positions) on one schedule.

All employers--whether recruiting our students on campus or at their own locations--are expected to adhere to Cornell Career Service's recruiting policies.

The Fall 2008 recruiting calendar runs from September 24 until December 5 (with summer internship interviewing to begin only after the October 21 ILR Career Fair), and the Spring 2009 calendar runs from February 9 until April 30. To schedule a recruiting date for 2008-09, please visit career.cornell.edu...Employers...On-Campus Recruiting...Scheduling Interviews.

Once your reservation request is complete, you will receive a confirmation via e-mail, with instructions for arranging your on-campus visit. You may wish to hold a presentation or information session for ILR students in conjunction with your visit. Please view the OCR Managing Tips for help.

From this point forward, you will be working with our ILR Recruiting Coordinator, Dottie Carlson, 607-255-2724, djc5@cornell.edu, on your plans for your visit.
