On-Campus Recruiting (OCR) FAQs


What is On-Campus Recruiting (OCR)?
On-Campus Recruiting (OCR) is a program that enables employers, local as well as nationwide, the opportunity to come to Southern New Hampshire University to recruit current seniors, graduate students and alumni during the fall and spring semesters.

Who is eligible to participate and how do I begin?
Students who are seniors, graduate students or alumni(us) from SNHU are eligible to participate in OCR. You must first activate your account on SNHU Recruit  prior to posting your resume.  

How do I find information on the company I am interested in?

We strongly encourage you to research the companies you may be interested in on the web before signing up for an interview.    

How am I notified if selected to interview?

You will be contacted by the employer, by e-mail, through SNHU Recruit if you are accepted or declined to interview.  Once accepted, you  may sign up for your interview time slot once the schedule is made available.  
   
Do I need to attend the information session of the company I am interested in?

If you are selected to interview with a particular company that is sponsoring an Information Session, you must attend. All students are encouraged to attend any company Information Session. Dates and times of these sessions are listed in SNHU Recruit.     

What if I cannot make my scheduled interview appointment?

Any student not able to attend their interview must call the Career office as soon as they are aware of the situation. Any student who does not call or show up for an interview may jeopardize their participation in the OCR program.

Do most companies hire international students?
All international students should check the "Special Instruction" area on the sign-up sheets. This will tell if you must be a United States citizen and any other qualifications the company may require. There are companies that do not sponsor international students here on visas.
