Employers from a variety of industries and locations are encouraged to join the recruiting program. No matter how hard we try to attract a wide range of employers, only a small fraction - those who have substantial resources and hiring needs - will commit to on-campus recruiting.
Use DartBoard to search and apply for these internships or entry-level jobs offered in our recruiting program. The 'Apply - Active Recruiting Events' menu on the 'Recruiting Program' toolbar is where you will find all information related to upcoming recruiting program opportunities.
Many organizations, such as social service organizations, scientific and law firms, government agencies, publishing houses, and public relations firms, prefer to have individuals contact them directly to indicate their interest. These employers will post jobs in DartBoard instead. The 'Job Search' link lists thousands of positions with U.S. and international organizations specifically seeking Dartmouth students, as compared to about 200 employers in the Recruiting Program link in the DartBoard site.
Use DartBoard to search for jobs and internships offered to Dartmouth students and alumni OUTSIDE of the Recruiting Program.
Our recruiting program is open to:
For RESUME DROPS
Off campus students may use DartBoard to apply, as these employers already plan to interview via phone or off-campus locations.
For ON-CAMPUS/PRESELECT interviews
Only students who are currently ON CAMPUS may apply for ON-CAMPUS interviews via DartBoard.
Most employers are willing to schedule phone interviews OR interviews in another location for off-campus students.
If you are off campus and interested in an ENTRY-LEVEL ON-CAMPUS INTERVIEW OPPORTUNITY, e-mail your application materials DIRECTLY to the employer, using the e-mail address that appears in the detailed job description in DartBoard. Explain that you are currently off campus. Do NOT apply via DartBoard.
If you are off campus and applying for an INTERNSHIP, follow the instructions for off campus students provided in the qualifications section of each job/internship description. Each employer has specified how off-campus students should apply for internships.
Through DartBoard Career Services collects and forwards resumes/cover letters of interested students to employers. Employers then contact selected students DIRECTLY (within 3 weeks of the submission deadline) to arrange interviews via telephone or AT THEIR OFFICES. Resume drop deadlines often correspond with on-campus interview deadlines. Brief announcements of upcoming Resume Drops and deadlines are posted on the "Career Services" or "Career Services-Entry-Level Jobs" blitz bulletin, as opportunities arise.
While the majority of entry-level on-campus interviewing occurs during Fall Term, recruiting occurs at lower levels during other terms for employers with later hiring cycles. Internship recruiting occurs year round. See Dartmouth Recruiting Calendar, and log into DartBoard to browse opportunities and apply online. Career fields represented in our program include: Marketing, Communications/Media, Health/Science, Education, Public Service, Consulting, Financial Services, Information Technology, Law, and Public Policy/Politics/Government.
Job fairs will be announced via Career Services blitz bulletins. These include:
Employer Connections Fair: September 29 & 30, 2009, Noon-4:00pm, Alumni Hall/Top of the Hop
