How To Post a Job or Internship

The Office of Career Services is happy to post full time positions and internships for companies, organizations, and school districts. Job and internship postings are entered into our online system for one month unless (1) the employer specifies another date or (2) the application deadline is prior to the designated timeframe. You may "extend" a posting or "repost" an opening at any time.

Full time position postings -- should be career focused requiring at least a bachelor's degree

Internship postings -- should be career focused, may be for credit, or not-for-credit

Please send detailed job descriptions, requirements, and application instructions to: career@nwmissouri.edu or fax to 660.562.1384.

On-Campus Interviewing

Interviewing space is available to employers and school districts for "Interview Days" following Fall and Spring Career Days and Education Expo in the Spring. Employers may interview for full-time or internship positions. Employers may select the candidates they wish to speak with in advance by reviewing resumes prior to the career event or they may fill their schedule with the students they meet during the event. Employers may also interview candidates at any time during the year regardless of a career event. If your employer or school district would like to interview candidates, please complete an On-campus Recruiting Form or contact our Career Development Coordinator-Employer Relations or call 660.562.1343 to set up an interview schedule.

Resume Referrals

The Office of Career Services can match employers with a number of candidates that meet their company's needs through resume referrals. Contact the Office of Career Services with your requirements, which might include major, GPA, and graduation date. Our staff will mail, e-mail, or fax the resumes of qualified registered students to your company or school district. To use our resume referral service, contact the Office of Career Services at 660.562.1343.

Internships

Northwest students can go from the classroom to the workplace with ease. They know the value of real-world experience, and they aggressively seek out internships to augment their degree work. They participate in internships to test-drive potential careers, build marketable resumes and expand real-world skills. Pursue talented internship candidates at our career events, through on-campus recruitment visits or through resume referrals. Additionally, we can post your intern openings on our web site, which is easily accessible to all Northwest students.
