How to Recruit at Reed
We continually seek new and creative ways to connect our students to the best employers and opportunities. Contact us anytime to discuss options such as a campus visit for an information session or a table session during lunch in our dining commons in Gray Campus Center. We can also involve employers in special programs aimed to help students prepare for the employment process (e.g., mock interviews, career shadowing, alumni engagement) or other career-related issues. We welcome your interest in these areas, too.- Employer Presentations

Career and Internship Connections (CIC)

In January of 2014, the following CIC fairs will take place:
Boston: January 6th, 2014, Boston Common Hotel & Conference Center
NYC: January 8th, 2014, American Management Association Conference Center
West Coast (Los Angeles): January 9th, 2014, Olympic Collections Banquet and Conference Center
Washington, DC: January 10th, 2014, FHI Development 360 LLC Conference Center
Innovative events to help your organization meet your volunteer, internship and full-time recruiting needs:
- Participation is FREE.
- The events bring the students to you! CICs are held in Washington DC, Boston, New York, and Los Angeles. Students come to you with the goal of interning over the summer and/or working full-time after graduation in these metro areas.
- Immediate access to hundreds of quality candidates. In total, 9 are ranked in the top 55 for "Best National Universities" and represent diverse majors including liberal arts, engineering, and sciences.
- CICs are unique in that they blend the best of a career fair and pre-screened interviews. Not only can you participate in a “traditional” career fair, you can post positions/typical hiring needs before the event to increase student interest AND create an interview schedule:
- THE OPEN FORUM: Exchange information, collect resumes, identify candidates, and, if desired, add students to afternoon interview schedules from 9:30am to 11:30am.
- PRE SCREENED INTERVIEWS: Receive resume collections and interview with pre-selected candidates after the morning session from 12:30pm to 5:00pm.
- Not sure what your hiring needs will be? In these challenging times, CIC events are still a great way to meet and interview volunteer/internship candidates AND prescreen candidates for “typical” full-time positions that may become available in the coming months.
- Not sure if this event is right for you? Register, post a position, and make final decisions after you review resume submissions. If you are unable to identify qualified candidates, there is no obligation to attend!
