THE WORKFORCE RECRUITMENT PROGRAM FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS with DISABILITIES is coming to the IU CAMPUS this year!
This program is an excellent way for current students and recent graduates to find internships and full-time jobs across the country.
INTERVIEWS AVAILABLE WITH THE WORKFORCE RECRUITMENT PROGRAM
What is the Workforce Recruitment Program?
The Workforce Recruitment Program for College Students with Disabilities (WRP) is a resource to connect public and private sector employers nationwide with students and recent graduates with disabilities who are eager to prove their abilities in the workforce. Employers seek to fill both temporary and permanent positions in a variety of fields.
How Does the Program Work?
The WRP operates on the following timeline:
• In January and February, a recruiter will come to IU to interview students.
• By late March, a database composed of your resume and other information is made available to employers in the public and private sectors.
• Once the data base is released, interested employers make direct contact with you about temporary and permanent job offers. The data base is active for one year.
Join the Career Development Center and Disability Services for Students in our effort to increase career opportunities for students like yourself. Sign up immediately to get an interview slot! Students will be required to attend preparatory sessions on interviewing skills, resume writing, and other helpful topics before their interviews.
