 Many employers visit the Maxwell School each year to provide information sessions and/or interview students on campus. Employer visits begin as early as mid-September and continue throughout the end of the spring semester in April. Information Sessions Information Sessions are generally scheduled between 11:30 and 1:30 p.m. The Information Session lasts about one and a half hours including an opportunity for students to ask questions. There is no charge for audio visual equipment, but it must be requested well in advance. Application Materials Application materials, typically a resume and cover letter, are submitted by interested students to the Career and Alumni Services Office at least one week in advance of the scheduled interview date and are then sent to the employer. At least three days in advance of the interview date, we should receive your candidate selections so that students have an opportunity to select an interview time slot. Interviews Interviews may be scheduled on the day of the Information Session or at a later date, based on the employer’s needs. We will arrange the interview schedule in any way that you choose. Publicity The Career and Alumni Services Office announces each employer’s employment opportunity through our listserv which reaches nearly all graduate students in The Maxwell School. We are happy to accept publicity text from employers which we will transmit to the students. Also any informational materials employers wish to send will be made available to students in our resource library. We can also reach alumni electronically if you desire this resource. Post-Interview Communication The Career and Alumni Services Office actively collects information regarding employment offers to our graduates. This information is used for statistical purposes only and will not be personally identifiable. When your candidate selections have concluded, please provide the following information to the office: employer name, student name, position title, location, yearly salary. We would also appreciate information about the candidacy of students throughout the interview process. Resume Referral For employers who are not able to visit The Maxwell School we offer the Resume Referral program. Through this program resumes of well-qualified graduate students are forwarded directly to you. Application Submission Interested students submit the required application materials, typically a resume and cover letter, to the Career and Alumni Services Office, by a deadline date established by the employer and our office. Materials are then sent by email to the employer. Once the application materials are received by the employer, contact occurs directly between the employer and interested students. Position and Internship Postings Some employers may choose to simply announce a position or internship opening to graduate students at The Maxwell School and have students send their application materials directly. We will gladly announce employment opportunities through our Careerserv listserv and add the posting to our online database.
