Employers must comply with Equal Employment Opportunity principles at all times and provide reasonable accommodations upon request.

2. Confidentiality

Employment professionals will maintain confidentiality of student/alumni information regardless of the source and will not release it to any other organization without the prior written consent of the student/alum.

3. Third Party Recruiters

Employment agencies, temporary agencies and search firms are eligible to utilize a limited selection of our services but MUST abide by the following guidelines:

• Agencies must clearly state any fees charged to candidates.
• Positions advertised with the Career Center must clearly indicate that candidates will be working through a third party agency.
• Position announcements MUST identify the client employer or at a minimum the employer's type of business, location and position duration (full-time, temporary, part-time).

5. Selectivity

The Career Services Center may need to be selective when determining which employers are represented at special events such as career fairs. Decisions will be made in a fair and equitable manner after considering factors such as space availability, student interest in employer/industry, industry balance and employer position within its industry.
