Information for Students
Procedure for Signing Up for Interviews
- Position descriptions and visit details for each company are posted on the eCareer online scheduling system.
If you do not yet have an eCareer account, you can visit the eCareer student log-in page and click on the "Register" button.
- Once
your account has been approved, you must upload a current resume. You
can then browse for positions available to your major and request
interviews with companies. All resumes should include your GPA and an objective, at the least.
- If you are chosen for an interview, the system will notify you automatically, and you will be prompted to log-in and choose an interview time.
