Recruiting Checklist

  1. Learn about the Johnson School Difference. If you would like more information about our students and programs contact Kim Alexander, Associate Director for Employer Outreach. (link).
  2. Decide whether to recruit on- or off-campus. While on-campus recruiting will expose your company to a wide range of students in an efficient, conducive setting, we also provide multiple opportunities to recruit our students without coming to Ithaca.
  3. Check the Academic & Recruiting Calendar. Once you have decided on your preferred recruiting dates we can begin discussing the best series of events for your needs. Please bear in mind that available dates are subject to change.
  4. Contact your Corporate Account Manager to get started. Our corporate account managers will get your contact information and provide you with a User ID and Log-in to our Corporate Interface. Susan Mix (607-255-5917 or sm292@cornell.edu) will assist employers in Investment Banking, Consulting and Finance. Holly Potter (607-255-4768 or hcp2@cornell.edu) will assist employers in Marketing, Technology, Operations and Healthcare. Either corporate account manager can assist you if you aren't sure where to start.
  5. Plan your pre-recruitment events. You can connect with students through a variety of options, ranging from corporate briefings to participation in a classroom opportunity or club event. Log onto the Recruiter Interface to initiate your request for a corporate briefing. Contact your corporate account manager for information on the other options.
