F A Q

Most of the employers who come to Cornell are recruiting students for permanent positions, but there are some interview schedules designed specifically for summer employment.

Some possible reasons are:

• You have not completed the online tutorial
• Your graduation date does not match what the employer is seeking
• Your employment status does not match the employer's requirements (e.g., work authorization)
• The employer is seeking a different level or field of education

• The resume submission deadline has passed

Pre-select - You are the employer's first choice for the interview.  The employer selects the same number of pre-selects as time slots on the interview schedule.  You have first access to the schedule, however on the pre-determined, posted date, alternates will be able to access the schedule as well.  Once alternates have access to the schedule, time slots are filled on a first come, first served basis.

Alternate - You are selected by the employer to fill any time slots left open by pre-selects. Alternates can access the schedule the last few days that it is open.  The specific access date is viewable on InterviewTRAK

Yes,  Click on the "Display Dates" button in the personal dates section of InterviewTRAK.  Click on "What I have Signed Up For", deselect yourself, and then you can resubmit your name in another time slot.  If the date has passed in which you have access to the schedule, then you must contact the career office which is hosting the employer.

After you have chosen a time slot, go into "What I have signed up for", there is a field called "Room/Location", which will indicate the location of the interview. 

Another place you can find this information is the main job listing. When doing a search for organizations coming to campus, you will get a list providing general information regarding each company.  Under the heading of "Job Information", you will see a job title with a  tag added indicating the interview location.  (e.g. "@CCSBarnes" or "@ENG").
