Any full-time MU undergraduate or student in the Graduate School who is in good standing is eligible to participate in On Campus Recruiting.

No. You should not create a separate resume for each job you apply to, but rather, you may want to designate a resume for different types of jobs or industries. For example, one for Marketing and one for Management; or one for Finance and one for Consulting.

For a preselect schedule, you must submit your resume to be considered for an interview. If you are chosen, or "preselected", you can then sign up for the interview. On an open schedule, you can sign up directly for an interview. In both cases, however, you must meet the employer's specific interview requirements; degree level, major, work authorization, and graduation date.

Copy and paste it from myMU website to your word processing application. Upload that file to the My Documents section of JobTrax. Be sure to add your name to the top of your unofficial transcript.

Absolutely, do NOT sign up for back-to-back interviews. It is quite common for interviewers to run behind schedule, so students should schedule 30 minutes between the scheduled end time of one interview and the scheduled start time of the next interview.

You will only be able to apply for a job if 1) you meet the employer's interview requirements as listed in the job details page and 2) the resume submission period is open.

Employers determine the screening criteria for OCR jobs: degree level, major, graduation date, and work authorization. We encourage employers to broaden these requirements to be as inclusive as possible (e.g., list all comparable majors for Business, Economics, and Computer Science). However, they make the final decision. First, check your profile to make sure that you have entered correct information. If you do notice a discrepancy in the job description and interview requirements, please send us an email and we will research further.

If you have missed the resume submission deadline, you can submit your application materials to Debby Stoler at (304) 696-2370 or by email. Your information will be forwarded to the employer however, they make the final decision.

You can withdraw your application materials online anytime prior to the Resume Submission End Date stated in the job description. Select the My OCR Interviews tab, then the Interview Requests tab on the next page. Find the correct job, then select Withdraw Application.

Notices to sign up for interviews will appear on your JobTrax desktop under Alerts. Employers may also send email notices to you.

Yes, but you may have lost your slot to an alternate candidate. You must call Career Services at 304-696-2370 to check for openings.

When you've been invited, be sure to note the dates of the sign-up period. In some cases, you may have to wait a day or two before the sign-ups are open and you can select a time slot. If the sign-up period has closed, contact Career Services at 304-696-2370 to see if any slots are still available.

Employers may select you as an alternate for some interviews (in other words, you are on a waiting list). In this case, a notice will appear on your JobTrax home page under Alerts. As an alternate, you can try to sign up for an interview during the online alternate sign-up period, but only if there are still interview slots available. If openings are available, there will be a sign-up link under Alerts. Remember, dates posted open at 12:01am and close at 11:59pm.

If you are an alternate and cannot schedule an interview online, don't give up! Call Career Services directly at 304-696-2370 after the sign-up deadline and we will check for cancellations. You can also call on the interview day at 304-696-2370 to check for same day cancellations. Identify yourself as an alternate and have the company name and job title ready.

If you need to change your interview time, you may do so before the Sign-Up End Date by logging in and selecting Scheduled OCR Interviews. Find the appropriate interview under the Scheduled Interviews tab and select Reschedule. You will only be able to change this if there are other open slots.
If the sign-up deadline has passed, you must contact the Career Center for assistance at 304-696-2370 or by email.

If the online Sign-Up End Date has not passed, simply login to JobTrax and cancel yourself from the schedule via Scheduled OCR Interviews. Find the correct job, then select Withdraw Application.

On-Campus Recruiting represents only one way a select group of organizations hire new employees. You should not limit your job search to only On-Campus Recruiting. Other ways to find a job include internet job boards, Career Fairs, and of course NETWORKING. Meet with a career advisor to devise a strategy for conducting a thorough and effective job search.

You will want to ask your interviewers for a business card before you leave each interview, so you can follow-up with them. If, however, you forget to ask for a card during the interview, please do not hesitate to ask the Career Services staff if the interviewers contact information is available on the day of your interview. If you don't ask for this information on the day of the interview, it may be much more difficult for us to determine which exact interviewer you met.

Employers typically expect a response to an offer within two weeks of the day the offer is made, but some are more flexible than others. Given staggered recruiting activities, you may receive an offer for an opportunity while you are still waiting to hear whether or not you will receive an offer from another employer. Stop by Career Services or call (304) 696-6785 or make an appointment with a career advisor to discuss this situation.
