On-Campus Interviews

The CDC's On-campus Interview program brings the employer to you! On-campus interviews give you the opportunity to interview with employers for both cooperative education and full-time career positions on campus at the CDC. Interviews are scheduled in both the fall and spring semesters each year.

All interviews are held in the Career Development Center, 0281 Student Success Center.

Candidates should:

• Arrive 10-15 minutes early
• Dress professionally

To assist you in preparing for a professional interview, it is recommended that you make an appointment with a career counselor who can administer a videotaped mock interview.

• In order to be qualified to interview with an employer for an on-campus interview, you must:
• Meet any qualifications set by the employer
• Have an active Cougar Jobline account with our office
