Using the Campus Interview Program

Each year approximately 500 recruiters representing over 300 different organizations come to the University of Delaware to interview students for permanent full-time positions beginning after graduation. Additional organizations will interview underclassmen during the spring semester for full-time, summer positions. For the Fall Semester interviews run from October 1 to December 16, 2007. For the Spring Semester interviews run from February 12 to May 22, 2008. Interviews are not held during Winter Session or Spring Break, however, resumes for upcoming interviews may be submitted during these periods. Resumes are submitted online through bluehens.erecruiting.com to individual organizations 21-15 days prior to the actual interview date.

Campus Interview Program Time Line:

  • 30-15 days prior to the interview date: Students will be able to view organization Profile and Job Description(s) and submit required documents for the position.
  • 14-7 days prior to the interview date: Organizations are able to view and/or print documents submitted by students, make selections, and email candidates.
  • 14-6 days prior to the interview date: "Selected" students will be able to schedule their interview time as soon as the organization sends out the email notification to them.
  • 5 days prior to the interview date: Selected "alternate" students will be able to schedule their interview time.
  • 4 days prior to the interview date: Other students will be able to do free sign-up*, if the organization approved this option. *Free sign-up = Any student user of bluehens.erecruiting.com can sign-up for an interview time without prior company review and acceptance.
  • 3 days prior to the interview date: Cancellations and changes are prohibited. If you need to cancel or change the time for an interview you have signed up for, you must contact the Campus Interview Program Office at 831-2391.
  • 1 day prior to the interview date: The interview schedule is "frozen" so the recruiter and the Campus Interview Program Office know the schedules for the day.
  • Interview Date: Students should arrive at the Bank of America Career Services Center (2nd Floor, 401 Academy Street) 10-15 minutes prior to their scheduled interview time to check-in, freshen up, and meet any "greeters" the organization brought with them.

No-Shows and Cancellations

When you sign-up for an interview, you have made a commitment to meet the employer.

If you are unable to appear for your scheduled interview, notify the Coordinator of the Campus Interview Program at least 48 hours in advance, so that alternates may be contacted. If you cancel within 48 hours of an interview or are a "no-show" for a scheduled interview, you will be suspended from participation in the Campus Interview Program until you write a letter of explanation to the recruiter and provide the Coordinator with a copy of the letter. Employers expect information regarding student cancellations. It is professional courtesy to provide information regarding your situation.

When You Accept a Job Offer

When you accept a job offer it is important to inform Career Services of your decision, because it affects your participation in the Campus Interview Program and the Resume Referral System.

  • You can inform Career Services of your decision by stopping by and completing a "Confidential Job Offer Form".
  • You should remove your resume from the "Resume Book" feature of bluehens.erecruiting.com so employers can no longer find and contact you. If you do not remove it, it remains accessible to employers until August of your graduation year.
