Senior Recruiting Program Contract and Release Form

Bridgewater State College-Career Services Office

 I, ________________________________, fully understand the responsibilities and expectations associated with participating in the Senior Recruiting Program as detailed in my Senior Recruiting Program Orientation appointment and Informational Packet and agree to adhere to the following guidelines:

  1. I understand that by submitting materials through the BSC CareerLink system and Senior Recruiting Program that I authorize Career Services to release my resume and supporting materials to organizations for consideration of employment.
     
  2. I confirm that all information that I provide through resumes, letters, transcripts and in interviews is totally factual and truthful.  Misinformation is considered unethical behavior and is cause for revocation of recruiting privileges.
     
  3. I have, or will have, an active BSC email account, which I will check weekly for program updates.
     
  4. I will have my resume critiqued by the Career Services Office and will upload it to activate my BSC Career Link account for participation in senior recruiting programs.
     
  5. I understand that it is my responsibility to keep an updated resume on my BSC CareerLink account to be a part of the Resume Referral Program. 
     
  6. I am aware that resume submission deadlines for the On-Campus Interviewing Program are advertised on the BSC Career Link site and that resumes are due by 11:59 p.m. on the advertised deadline dates.
  7.  I understand the importance of being prepared, on time and properly attired for all interviews. 
     
  8. I understand and appreciate the time of an employer who recruits with BSC.   I will read job descriptions thoroughly and research potential employers.  I will only submit resumes to companies I am truly interested in and if selected for an interview, will sign-up for and attend it. 
     
  9. If I accept an interview with an organization and sign-up for an interview time, I am required to take the interview.  Failure to cancel a scheduled interview at least one business day in advance will be viewed as a “no-show” and my access to OCI and Senior Recruiting Programs will be suspended.  Reinstatement of access will be at the discretion of the Director of Career Services and a written apology to the recruiter is required.
     
  10. If I must cancel an interview due to an illness or emergency situation, I will contact Career Services at 508-531-1328 at least 24 hours before my interview or as soon as possible (NO EMAILS for Cancellations!).  A note of apology must be sent to the recruiter and a copy submitted to our office.
     
  11. If the college is closed for any reason, On-Campus Interviews or Career Fairs will be rescheduled or canceled at the organization’s discretion. 
     
  12. I understand that BSC Career Services has the right to remove poor quality resumes and letters before sending to an organization without notifying me ahead of time.  It is my responsibility to have my resume and cover letter critiqued by a BSC Career Services counselor prior to uploading it into BSC CareerLink.
     
  13. I will only accept a job offer if I am absolutely positive that I plan to work for that company/organization.  If I have questions regarding a job offer or salary, I will make an appointment with the Career Services Office. 
     
  14. Once I accept a position, I will end my job search and inform all other parties with whom I have interviews, as well as Career Services, of my decision.
     
  15. I will conduct myself in a manner that will reflect well not only on myself, but Bridgewater State College as well. 
     
  16. I understand that the Career Services Office provides me with services and opportunities to help me find employment; they are not a placement service.  The Career Services Office also makes no promises or guarantees that participation in these programs or services will guarantee employment. 
     
  17. I understand that if I have any questions or concerns in regards to any of the mentioned Senior Recruiting programs, that it is my responsibility to contact the Career Services Office and consult with a counselor.
