5 Simple Steps
Step 1: Register for our CV Database here. If you already have a username and password for the CV Database, then click here. Begin looking through the student CVs. If you participate one day with one recruiter, then you may interview about 15 students. If you participate two days, then you may interview 30 students. If more than one recruiter joins you, then you may select even more students. This is entirely up to you. The virtual format allows for some extra flexibility this year; so you are free to choose according to your schedule. You can determine this once you look through the student CVs.
Step 2: Join our Highered Talent Panel with your work email. This is very important. Only your work email.
