Recruiting Programs

Fordham's Career Planning Center offers a variety of recruitment options to accommodate specific hiring needs and timelines of different employers: our On-Campus Recruitment program in both Fall and Spring semesters and our Resume Collect programs three times a year.

  • On-campus interviews

    Many employers begin the process of their summer and permanent hiring process by conducting time-saving on-campus interviews. Each Spring and Fall, the CPC organizes an extensive On-Campus Interview Program, attracting a multitude of employers to Fordham's conveniently located Lincoln Center campus in Manhattan. Our roster of on-campus employers encompasses law firms, accounting firms, corporations, government agencies, and public interest organizations.

    The On-Campus Interview Program is divided into two different sections, each with its own distinctive focus:

  • The CPC offers formal Resume Collect Programs four times times a year (one in early summer, twice early in the fall semester and once early in the spring semester). Employers receive application materials from interested students and invite selected students to their offices for an interview. There is no fee to participate, and employers may indicate the specific application materials they require (e.g., cover letters, transcripts and/or writing samples).
