How to Market Your Organization

Provide Comprehensive Job Descriptions & Update your Website

A complete and accurate job description, in a language tailored for liberal arts students, is critical to attracting appropriate candidates. Your website is also an important marketing tool. Feel free to consult with us! If your organization is part of our Recruiting Program, your job description(s) and your website will be linked directly to the Career Services website.

Entry-Level Job Postings

Our recruiting and job posting system is called DartBoard.  In DartBoard, you can post unlimited jobs targeting Dartmouth students specifically and do so free of charge.

You can also participate in the Dartmouth Recruiting Program and register for Dartmouth career fairs online.

Participate in our Employer Connections Fair

Host a booth Wednesday, October 1st or Thursday, October 2nd from Noon through 4:00 PM in Alumni Hall/Hopkins Center

Participation is highly recommended for employers who wish to establish a strong presence on  campus.  Over 800 students attend each day.  Held during the first full week of Fall term, students come here to learn about career options, internship and entry-level job opportunities.  Held in lieu of information sessions, this is your primary opportunity to engage students, raise their level of interest, and introduce them to your application process.  Resumes are NOT collected here, as students use the event to prepare for upcoming resume deadlines.

Call us at 603-646-2665/1163 to obtain more information or to request a registration form.

Send Targeted Mailings

Target students interested in your career field. Invite students to visit your booth at our Employer Connections Fair and/or to apply for positions with your organization. Nominal fee to obtain mailing labels from our office.  Call 603-646-2665/1163 to place your order.

Hire Dartmouth Interns Full-Time Each Season/Term

Cultivate a steady supply of future entry-level candidates and get students thinking about your organization earlier.  Hire full-time interns each quarter (Jan.- Mar., Apr.-June, July-Sept., Oct-Dec.)   Nothing surpasses ongoing word-of-mouth advertising. Call us at 603-646-2665/1163 to discuss how to get started.

Hold an Information Session

Call our office at 603-646-2665/1163 to schedule a one-hour event. Events are open to all students and may be scheduled to take place during our winter, spring or summer quarters. Info sessions take place in campus classrooms that our office reserves OR, for employers who want to serve refreshments, in function rooms reserved at the Hanover Inn. Regardless of your event location, Career Services schedules the event so that we can market it effectively and so that we can insure your event does not overlap with other employer events scheduled.

Note: Sophomores are required to be on campus taking classes during our summer quarter. As such, Summer Information Sessions should be geared specifically to these sophomores/rising juniors. Ideally, summer information sessions are used to promote winter internships for these students.

Since the majority of our fall quarter is heavily booked with on-campus interviews, information sessions are not available during fall term. Instead, employers are invited to participate in our Employer Connections Fair. Call us at 603-646-2665/1163 to obtain more information about the fair.

Help Fund Innovative Resources for Students.

Assist us in providing state-of-the-art Career and Job Search Resources. Call us at (603) 646-2665 to discuss how your organization can gain recognition as a special friend & supporter of our office.

Advertise in the daily "Dartmouth" Student Newspaper

Call "the D" at (603) 646-2600 for lead times and rates. Feel free to consult with our office on suggested timing and ad language. Send a copy of your ad to us before it goes to print, so we can confirm dates, locations and other relevant details.

Request a Resume Drop

Use this service if you're unable to come to campus. Career Services will announce your opportunity, then use our DartBoard system to electronically collect resumes/cover letters. You can contact selected candidates directly to conduct telephone interviews, then bring pre-screened candidates to your offices for on-site interviews. We ask that you contact each applicant within 3 weeks of the submission deadline to inform them of their status.  If, after reviewing the application materials, you decide you would like to conduct on-campus interviews, call us ASAP.
