Add On-Campus Recruiting (OCR)

Alumni are welcome to utilize on-campus recruiting.  In general, we recommend OCR for use by alumni with less than two years professional experience.  There is a $40 fee for alumni to access OCR and alumni must travel to the campus hosting the interview if selected for an on-campus interview by an employer.
