Students are required to represent themselves truthfully and ethically to employers, the University, and the Career Center.

Students that falsify accomplishments or misrepresent themselves will be prohibited from further participation in the On-Campus Interviewing Program. All instances of falsification or misrepresentation will be referred to University administration for violation of the Student Conduct Code.

Cancellation Policy

Interviews must be cancelled by 8:00 a.m., 48 hours before the scheduled interview. After the 48 hour time period has elapsed, all interview schedules will be frozen and neither students nor employers will be able to change their schedule information. Students that cancel an interview with less than 48 hours notification will have their eRecruiting Account deactivated. Students must complete the Missed Interview Explanation Form within 5 business days. If the form is returned with proof of excuse within 5 business days, the cancellation will be considered excused and the student's eRecruiting Account will be reactivated. Students who fail to return the Missed Interview Explanation Form will be denied access to their eRecruiting Account and will not be allowed to participate in On-Campus Interviewing for the remainder of the Academic Year.

Please note: Students may not cancel more than 2 interviews with 48 hour notification without penalty. The third interview cancelled with 48 hour notice will result in the revocation of student On-Campus Interviewing and eRecruiting privileges for the remainder of the Academic Year.

Please note: All students will be expected to honor On-Campus Interviews previously scheduled with other companies. However, all pending OCI applications will be revoked.

Acceptance of a Job Offer

A job or internship offer is a professional commitment. Job offers can be either written or verbal, and should be made in good faith with the intention of honoring that commitment. Students must stop interviewing once a job offer has been accepted, and report their job offer to the Employer Relations Team at recruitstudents@depaul.edu. Once a job offer has been accepted, students must contact other employers which they have interviewed to inform them that they are no longer available for interviews.
