Find a job through eRecruiting

What is eRecruiting? eRecruiting is a web-based database used by the Center for Advising and Career Services (CACS) and Human Resources (HR) to help students in the job search process. CACS advertises co-ops, internships, summer jobs and post-graduate jobs, and coordinates the visits of companies conducting on-campus interviews of students for these jobs. HR advertises student and work-study employment. The jobs posted are on- and off-campus, local, regional and around the nation.
