Engage with USC Students

Engage with Students

Meet with students virtually in one-on-one or group chat settings to discuss topics ranging from interview preparation, organization culture, networking strategies, and resume/cover letters tips. We ask that employers review the Non-Discrimination and Sexual Harassment Guidelines on how to engage with students.

Attend the Virtual Employer Resume Review, a Career Fest Signature Event

Career Fest is a week of events for USC students centered on our students’ career development. The week includes panels, discussions, workshops, and networking events hosted by departments across the USC campus. The Virtual Employer Resume Review is one of the signature events of Career Fest.

The Virtual Employer Resume Review will provide a rare opportunity for students to get their resumes reviewed by actual recruiters, gain a different perspective through the eyes of employers, and meet some of their favorite organizations. Typically, 200-300 students attend from all class years, majors, and degree levels.

There is no cost to attend this event and registration is available through connectSC. As soon as you log in, click on “Events,” then the “Virtual Employer Resume Review” button to register. If you have any questions, contact Erika Rodriguez.

Connect with School-Based Career Services Offices and Events

Along with the Career Center, USC has school-based career services offices or professionals committed to the career development of each USC student. USC’s federated model of central and school-based career services allows us to provide a wide range of career services and a variety of programs, workshops, and general career development advice, along with industry-specific information, job opportunities, and networking connections. Students can seek assistance from both the Career Center as well as their school-based career centers or professionals.

Communication Etiquette

  • We recommend keeping in close communication with the USC Career Center about your updated point of contacts, hiring cycle, organization’s culture, and brand to maximize and update your organization’s knowledge and involvement with the students.
  • It is important to maintain professional and meaningful recruiter-student communication before, during, and after the hiring process. Communicating regularly with students, even those that were not offered a position, will keep the students engaged with your recruiting process and continue to improve their application or interview outcomes.
