What is on-campus interviewing?
|
|
The Career Services Center brings prospective employers to campus to connect juniors and seniors with employment opportunities in a range of fields, including internships.
Interviews are conducted on-campus during both the fall and spring semesters. Employers also provide Information Session on-campus prior to their interview dates.

Is the OCI program for me?
|
- Are you a California State University, Stanislaus graduating senior (plan to graduate by August) interested in beginning a comprehensive job search for your first professional-level position?
- Are you a junior looking for internship experience?
- Are you interested in the fields of accounting, finance, technology, human services, education, physical/life sciences, sales/marketing, and/or management?
- Would you like to participate in interviews right here on-campus around your class schedule?
|
|
If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, the OCI program may be for you.
|
|
|
|
When are interviews held?
|
Fall interviews are scheduled between mid-September and December 9. Spring interviews are scheduled between mid-February and May 5.
Once you have participated in an orientation, you will be given online access to view the dates and job opportunities of employers that will be on campus. No interviews or resume submission deadlines will be scheduled during college breaks, exam periods, or on holidays.
