Upcoming- Unveiling the New On-Campus Recruiting System

With MonsterTRAK shutting down school's individual recruiting platforms on June 30, 2008, The Center for Career Education's Employer and Alumni Relations division has been hard at work vetting and customizing a new on-campus recruiting platform.  The Center has chosen to work with CSO Research/Interfase for the ability to customize the system to best support the needs of students and employers.  To support the transition process, we have invited the student body to help us brand and name this new system and we expect to unveil the new name and logo in a few weeks.

With this new system, students, employers and alumni will have access to all Columbia targeted job postings, on-campus interviews, employer presentations, career center events, career fairs, as well as thousands of jobs employers choose to syndicate through MonsterTRAK.  You will also be able to maintain a person calendar, manage multiple resumes, cover letters, and other employment related documents and RSVP for events.  The system has some great new features that we hope will ease your process for recruiting and job searches.

So what does this mean for you? 

Employers:  CCE will begin accepting Fall 2008 and Spring 2009 OCR reservation requests and Information Session dates and times beginning May 27th.  We will be accepting them through our website (detailed information to be emailed) and will do our best to accommodate everyone the best we can.  After your dates and times are approved, you will be asked to enter the new system to set up your events and information sessions.  CCE will be providing support via on-line tutorials, as well as phone and email contacts.
