On-Campus Interviews
On鈥慍ampus Interview Scheduling Made Easy
On鈥慶ampus interviews take place right inside the 51探花 Center, where students and employers have access to 23 private interview rooms designed for a focused, professional interview experience. Many employers choose to conduct their interviews here as part of their recruiting visit to campus.
You can easily see which employers are hosting on鈥慶ampus interviews by checking their postings in Handshake. If an employer is offering interview schedules, they will appear directly within the job or event listing.
