These positions are listed separately in the newsletter and follow the same procedures as fall recruiting listed below.

Fall Recruiting

There is a limited number of companies and students participating in the Fall Recruiting Program. Because of these limited numbers the procedures are less structured. When signing up for an interview in the Fall program you must come to the Recruiting Office and fill out a registration card and submit 1 copy of your resume for our files. In addition, you will need copies of your resume for each open or closed company you are signing up for. Under the open system, first-come, first-serve, you submit your resume(s) and sign up for an interview (s) at the sametime. Under the closed system indicated by a "C"and followed by a date (this is the deadline forresume submission to the Recruiting Office), yourresume must be submitted by this date. Companieswill then notify you by letter or mailgram thatyou have been selected for an interview. You thenbring this letter to the Recruiting Office to signup for a time.
