Job Descriptions
Full-time job descriptions must be uploaded to COIN one month before the application due date.
Application Due Dates
For all positions for which companies will recruit on campus, applications must be solicited through COIN. Companies may require additional means of application if they wish. Application deadlines generally default to 9 a.m. eastern time one week before the invitation-list due date. The earliest application due date is September 21, 2009.
Interview Guidelines
- On-campus first-round interviews for full-time positions will begin
on Wednesday, October 21, 2009, and continue
through April 21, 2010.- The first two interview days are reserved for firms in the banking industry only.
- All industries may conduct 1st round interviews beginning Friday, October 23.
- Off-campus first round interviews may be scheduled:
- On Fridays, beginning on October 30, 2009.
- The exception is Tuesday, October 27, 2009, which is reserved for off-campus first-round interviews outside the banking industry.
- Recruiters must advise the CMC of plans to hold off-campus first-round interviews so that interview days are not overbooked.
- Second round interviews for full-time positions may begin after 5:30 PM EDT on Friday, October 23, 2009 and continue daily. Students must be offered at least one alternative day for second round interviews.
- Students may not miss academic commitments in order to interview. Some second-year students may have exams between October 21-27, which must be accommodated.
- Companies choosing to interview students on Friday evenings or Saturdays must be prepared to accommodate students who request an alternative date for religious reasons.
Interview Blackout Periods
During the following periods, firms should not offer formal interview schedules; however, individual students may be interviewed if arrangements do not conflict with personal or academic commitments:
- November 25-29, 2009(Thanksgiving week)
- December 10, 2009 (last day of Fall classes)
- December 14–23, 2009 (final exams)
- December 24, 2009–January 19, 2010 (winter break and study tours)
- March 3 –12, 2010 (midterm exams and spring break)
- April 22, 2010 (last day of Spring classes)
- April 26–May 5, 2010 (final exams)
Offers
- Offers may be extended after 5:30 PM EDT on Tuesday, October 27, 2009. Firms may not invite students to sell days or other post-interview events until after offers are extended.
- Offers must remain open until November 30, 2009, or for a minimum of four weeks, whichever is later. Offers extended after February 1, 2010 must remain open for a minimum of two weeks.
- The fundamental compensation terms of an offer must remain unchanged until the expiration date, although incentives encouraging students to commit before the deadline are permitted, so long as they are small relative to the overall value of the offer.
- Hiring organizations should inform students of their status and/or timeline for decisions within two weeks of their interviews.
Offers to Former Summer Interns
Full-time offers to students who completed summer internships at your company must be held open until November 6, 2009 or for four weeks, whichever is later.
Pre-interview Dinners & Sell Days
Pre-interview dinners are generally not allowed. Exceptions may be made for companies outside the tri-state area. Please consult Natalie Rios or your account manager about your company’s circumstances.
Sell Days should never conflict with academic commitments and are therefore best held on Fridays or Saturdays. Additionally, firms may not invite students to sell days or other post interview events until after offers are extended.
