Employers
The open schedule allows students and alumni meeting your job requirements to self-schedule an interview time and submit their resumes online. Your schedule fills with no more action on your part. You will be able to view the resumes as they are submitted for the interviews. The schedule closes two days prior to your interview date.
A pre-select schedule allows you to pre-screen student resumes for your interviews. After reviewing the resumes during a specified selection period and making your pre-selections online, the BeachLINK system automatically notifies the selected students. They are then responsible to self-schedule a timeslot for the interview schedule. There are trigger dates that prompt action on your part, i.e. for resume review and candidate selection. BeachLINK will prompt you by email when a trigger date is nearing. There are preset system dates for these activities but these dates can be easily modified by Career Center at your request.
This option allows you to create your own interview schedule of CSULB students outside the online BeachLINK system. This choice is suggested if, at a job fair, information session or other student meeting, you develop a list of students that you would like to interview. Reserve an interview room in advance of the event.
Set up your own time schedule directly with the candidates and send a copy of the schedule to the Career Center the day before your interview. Some employers also use this option to conduct second interviews. We are happy to provide a free interview room based on availability.
This service allows your position to be posted on BeachLINK as an OCI opportunity without an interview date. Students are able to drop resumes and if the response warrants an On-Campus Interview then contact the OCI staff to help you select an interview date.
The sample below shows trigger dates for a May 25 interview:
| resume submission start | resume submission end | employer select start | employer select end | preselect signup start | schedule close |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| April 7, 2008 | May 18, 2008 | May 19, 2008 | May 20, 2008 | May 21, 2008 | May 23, 2008 |
Student: Drop resumes until midnight on the resume submission end date. Resume drop ends 7 days prior to the interview date.
Employer: For two days after the resume drop ends, review the resumes by logging on to BeachLINK. BeachLINK will remind you to make your selections. In BeachLINK, go to Quick Links and click on "View OCI Applicants". Invite those candidates that you choose to interview by clicking "invited" next to their names and click on "Submit". BeachLINK automatically e-mails students to notify them that they have been invited to your interview.
Student: The following day, invited students begin preselect sign-up. They have 3 days to log on to BeachLINK and schedule their interview time.
The schedule closes 2 days prior to the interview date.
