Recruiting Guidelines
Thank you for your interest in recruiting at the University of Northern Iowa. Our 13,000 students will be interested in learning more about your organization and opportunities. In our effort to maintain the integrity of recruiting at the University of Northern Iowa, we have developed standards by which all recruitment and postings must adhere:
- Contact Integrity All job postings must include an email address, phone number, and location for Career Services to contact. Additionally:
- Email: Must be tied to the organization and not listed with a free web-based address (@gmail.com, @yahoo.com, etc)
- Phone: Must be tied to a company contact and not a generic 800 number
- Physical Address: Must be present and verifiable; no PO Box addresses accepted.
- No Buy-ins Absolutely no postings will be accepted if applicants must pay or purchase access for opportunities.

- Hourly, Labor, Part-time Work All positions should be pre-professional or professional of nature. If the position is in question, contact Kristin.Cahill@uni.edu.
- Marketing & Advertising CareerCat 2.0 and the Career Services social media feeds (LinkedIn, Twitter, etc) are designed to connect students to career readiness programming, internships and job opportunities. No advertising is allowed for products and services other than to draw interest to active job/internship posting(s).
