Third Party Recruiter Services

The National Association for Colleges and Employers (NACE) defines third-party recruiters as: “agencies, organizations, or individuals recruiting candidates for temporary, part-time, or full-time employment opportunities other than for their own needs. This includes entities that refer or recruit for profit or not for profit, and it includes agencies that collect student information to be disclosed to employers for purposes of recruitment and employment.”

Third Party recruiters are welcome to post their internship or job opportunities if they abide by the following guidelines.

• Third-party recruiters who are hiring for positions within their own organization
• Third-party recruiters who are hiring for positions outside of their organization that clearly identify themselves, disclose their client’s name and provide their client’s contact information
• In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, third-party recruiters will not disclose to any employer any student information without obtaining prior written consent from the student. Under no circumstances can student information be disclosed for other than recruiting purposes nor can it be sold or provided to other entities.
• Third party recruiters must not retain any student resumes for future placement unless given written consent by the student.
• Please note: Third party recruiters who charge candidates a fee of any kind are not permitted.
