JOB POSTINGS AND
RESUME DATABASES
Criteria used for screening can be helpful
in determining eligibility, but the most
efficient method is a resume collection where
students submit resumes in response to a
job description. We can assist you in posting
jobs for master’s students. You may also pull
filtered resume books from CMA, searching
for keywords such as: current student, 1st
year MBA, seeking internship, with a primary
concentration in Finance, holding F-1 visa, or
“Mandarin.”
RECRUITER POLICIES
Recruiters cannot ask interview questions that
could be construed as unethical, illegal or in
violation of personal privacy, such as questions
related to race, age, marital status, religion,
handicap, national or ethnic origin, or his/her
sexual orientation.
Please inform students of their status (regret,
or invite to site) within the time frame you
mention in the campus interview. Students
appreciate receiving this within two weeks
after the interview if possible.

The NACElink@Purdue job posting board is
for companies looking to hire students (or
alumni) for entry-level, internships, co-ops and
part-time positions. Resumes can be collected
in our system, emailed to you, or students
can be directed to apply on your company
website. Positions should be posted at the
beginning of recruiting, before career fairs, and
remain active for 30-45 days. Positions can be
re-posted if you need additional candidates.
Positions should have a descriptive title, give
an overview of the company and list the job
responsibilities. In addition, it should include
the qualifications you seek or require in
candidates.
To add screening criteria to a posting you
can use the resume collection option. This
functions similar to an on-campus interview
posting but it does not have a recruiting date
set. Should you decide you want to interview
on campus, a resume collection can be
converted to an on-campus interview visit.
