On-Campus Recruitment Visits
Employers may come to our main campus and a downtown campus once per semester (total of 2 visits per semester). Much like your own individual job fair booth, we'll provide the table and chair. Giveaways and wrapped candy are permissible; however, food and drinks are not.
NOTE: Up to 2 employer representatives are allowed to attend. Masks are optional.

The general on campus recruiting program policy and process is as follows:

  • Reservations need to be made at least 7 days prior to the desired visit date
  • Visits are scheduled on days and times when there is highest traffic [Employers will be informed of best days to schedule as request for visit is made]
  • Employers are allowed to recruit on campus twice per semester, fall and winter only and not during the first week or finals week of the semester
  • Employers are requested to keep track of students that stop by, as well as interviews, and job offers that result from the visit
  • Representatives should remain at the table for the duration of the visit, except for quick breaks
  • If an employer needs to cancel, notice needs to be given to Student Employment Services office at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled visit date by contacting 269.488.4040
  • If an employer no-shows, that will count as the one visit allowed per semester
  • KVCC does not allow on campus recruitment to employers that require a fee payment or investment prior to employment or those employers that provide financial incentives to staff who recruit new hires for which the recruiting staff member receives a portion of the new hire's commission

Note:
Student Employment Services reserves the right to edit, delete or decline employer profiles, job postings or on campus recruiting requests that require a financial investment on the part of students/alumni or those that provide financial incentives to staff who recruit new hires for which the recruiting staff member receives a portion of the new hire's commission. In addition, postings or requests that are not in compliance with the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Principles for Employment Professionals are subject to edits, deletions or declines.
