Schedules
PRE-SELECT SCHEDULES
The majority of the employers who recruit at SMU choose to screen the resumes of candidates in advance. Employers will post a job in On Campus Interview Schedules and request students submit their resume by a deadline. Some companies require additional information such as cover letters, transcripts, applications, or writing samples. Review the Employer’s Job Description in On Campus Interview Schedules carefully for instructions and deadline information. The employer will then review resumes for approximately 1 week and select students to interview.
Pre-selected students are notified by email and instructed to schedule an interview time on the employer's schedule in On Campus Interview Schedules in MustangTRAK. Students may also check the Career Events link in MustangTRAK to see all the employers that have scheduled information sessions. This pre-selection process typically takes 2 weeks from the Resume Submission Deadline until the day of the on-campus interview.
OPEN SCHEDULES
Employers will post a job in On Campus Interview Schedules and allow qualified students to sign-up on a "first-come, first-served basis". This is the least common method used by employers.
