On-Campus Interviewing

Connecting Students & Employers

On-campus interviewing gives you the chance to take the next step in your job search by connecting directly with employers. Each year, companies from various industries visit ¸£Àû¼§ to interview students and alumni for full-time and internship opportunities. Interviews may be held in-person or virtually, most often during the fall and spring semesters.

These interviews are not practice sessions—they are real opportunities to land a job or internship.

How to Participate:

To take part in campus interviews you must:

  • Be a current or graduated ¸£Àû¼§ student.
  • Meet employer qualifications, such as GPA, major, and graduation date.
  • Reserve an interview space with our office in advance.

Before the Interview

  • Prepare thoroughly: Reflect on your skills, strengths, and experiences.
  • Schedule a mock interview or meet with a career coach.
  • Research each employer beforehand.
  • Create thoughtful questions about the company’s goals, work culture, or training.
  • Attend employer info sessions to learn more and make a strong impression.

Day of the Interview

Whether virtual or in-person, here’s what you need to do:

  • Arrive 10–15 minutes early.
  • Check in at the Career Success Center front desk.
  • Bring extra copies of your resume and unofficial transcript.
  • Dress professionally.

For virtual interviews:

  • Test your technology (Wi-Fi, camera, audio) well in advance.
  • Set up a clean, professional background.
  • Dress as if you were meeting in person.

After the Interview

  • Understand how and when the employer will follow up.
  • Send a thank-you email within 24–48 hours.
  • Notify the Career Success Center if you receive a job offer. (We want to congratulate you!)
  • If you accept an offer, you must withdraw from all other campus interviews.

Maintaining professional and ethical conduct ensures continued access to employer opportunities.

  • Cancel at least 2 working days before your interview.
  • After the sign-up deadline, cancel by calling (936) 294-4454, visiting the Career Success Center, or emailing our office.
  • A Late Cancellation is any cancellation made the day before or the day of the interview.
