Employer / Advertiser Frequently Asked Questions

You may place an ad at any time.

Q: What is the cost to advertise?
A: The cost to advertise is: $300.

Q: Can we pay by check or purchase order?
A: Yes, we accept purchase orders, checks, Visa, Master Card & American Express.
Paying by credit card is very easy, however, you can also pay by check. Follow the instructions to advertise your ad, when asked how you'd like to pay, choose "pay by check". You'll receive your invoice shortly by email or mail.

Q: Are there limits on word count?
A: No, please include specific details on the career opportunity. Detailed information provides prospective candidates the ability to tailor their application materials and the opportunity of determine their level or interest and qualification. The goal is to make this efficient for employers and job seekers.

Q: Can we include our logo?
A: Yes. You’ll be given the option to include a 100x100 pixel logo at the end of the advertising process.

Q: Can we reach only local candidates? (We can't pay relocation expenses)
A: Yes! The process of advertising includes selecting where the opportunity is located. Only candidates who have specified that location and meet your other qualification criteria will receive the ad. Secondly, it is important to state in the ad that travel and relocation reimbursement is not available. Remember, your ad is available online where anyone may view it.

Q: What happens to an ad once it is submitted?
A: It is processed through our system which means it is emailed to all registered candidates who meet the minimum qualifications (i.e. education, experience, focus, etc &) and have selected preferences (i.e. location, work setting, etc &) matching the characteristics of the opportunity. Secondly, the ad is immediately available online for anyone to view and apply for. *To ensure integrity and provide quality control, new customers may experience a slight one-time delay in processing. Before ads are processed or appear on the web, the employer registration information must be approved. During normal business hours (ET), this step may occur with little or no delay in processing. Once a customer has been approved, all advertising from that point, will be processed real-time!

Q: Can we view the resumes of registered candidates?
A: No, we do not store resumes, nor do we encourage candidates to make a generic resume available anywhere on the web. We believe candidates should take an active role in their career. We encourage candidates to prepare their resume in response to a specific opportunity.

Q: How soon may we expect to begin receiving responses to our ad?
A: Typically, resumes begin to arrive in less than 24 hours. Many customers report response times in as little as two.

Q: With over 13,000 registered job candidates, will we be flooded with resumes?
A: Not likely. Well written ads with detailed information are less likely to generate resume blasts as compared to brief, vague ads without enough detail for candidates to discern their suitability or interest.

Q: How long do ads remain active?
A: Jobs: 8 weeks, Internships and graduate program 12 months. You may deactivate your ad anytime using the login information you create as the first step to advertising.

Job Seekers Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Who will see my profile?
A: Nobody! We do not provide candidate data to anyone for any reason. (Period)!

Q: Can I submit my resume?
A: No, we maintain only candidate email addresses and preferences. Resumes should be prepared and maintained on a pc or portable storage device for ready access when a great career opportunity is delivered.

Q: How many career opportunities will I receive if I register?
A: That's very difficult to anticipate. Entry level candidates who are willing/able to relocate typically receive the largest number of opportunities. A candidate who is tied to a location, but has the expertise to do a variety of things may receive somewhat fewer opportunities. Finally, a senior level professional may receive the fewest opportunities for a variety of reasons including the decreased number of opportunities available at a senior level. It is important to remember that candidates may login to edit or update preferences at any time to broaden or narrow preferences.

Q: Why register when all ads may be seen online?
A: Candidates register for a variety of reasons. For those who are actively pursuing new career opportunities, registering ensures that an opportunity matching preferences and qualifications will not be missed!

Q: I'm not actively looking, but want to keep an eye out for a "once-in-a-lifetime" opportunity, should I register?
A: Probably not. After all, who needs more email. If not actively looking, then emailed opportunities probably make no sense. We encourage potential candidates who find themselves "on the fence" or really only interested in industry trends, to bookmark our website. However, we know that many faculty members register to further disseminate ads to alumni and students. So, it's your call.
