The ICG assists faculty in many ways to support student success. Examples include:
- Class Presentations: ICG offers presentations on a variety of topics related to career exploration. Topics currently available include resumes, cover letters, interviewing excellence, LinkedIn, and elevator speech. Due to staffing limitations, ICG must be selective in the number and type of class presentations that are available. Please schedule in advance.
- Guide to Ethical and Legal Standards in Student Hiring: Helping students in their job search can result in accidental illegal or unethical action. The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) has developed a faculty guide that addresses these issues. It explicitly addresses the issues surrounding candidate referrals. Faculty and staff should also not screen candidates for employers. CLICK HERE to review the guide.
