Confusing to employers or students? Agreeing to the same employer policies?

Faculty concern (sharing contacts?) Career Services was already working

with many Journalism contacts

Journalism Faculty Concern: Will non-journalism majors be able see our jobs?

Tagging Jobs

Considerations Time (2-3 months to set up, do in summer)

Different employer policies?

Be careful not to create duplicate employer contact accounts (Internship Process)

Same system: need to agree on major changes & communicate minor changes

Considerations (Job Posting Language)

Language to add to job postings needs to be identical

Advantages One database for students and employers Increased job postings More complete snapshot of yearly stats Legal guidelines Jobs can be seen by only Journalism students OR by all EDUCATION & more in the know More awareness of each other’s events and cross promotion (social

media) Promotes great relationship building
