NACElink Recruiting System

Delaware State University uses a web-based recruiting system that conveniently enables you to post jobs, register for events, sign up for on campus recruitment and information sessions, receive announcements, join the professional network, participate on an advisory board, provide sponsorship, and so much more. Current undergraduate and graduate students and alumni of DSU have access to this system 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. What is most exciting is that you can post jobs directly on the system and you can utilize this service AT NO COST!!!! (If you currently work with other schools that use NACElink and would like to use the multi school posting option, there is a fee for this convenience.) Doing so will get your posting before our current students as well as our alumni! To access the system, go to https://desu-csm.symplicity.com/employers/. After logging in, click the register button. Enter your information and click submit. You will receive your username and password within one business day. If you are having trouble logging onto the site, or you have any questions that you cannot work through, please send an email to careerplanning@desu.edu. All that’s left to do is to get started!

On-Campus Recruiting (OCR)

The On-Campus Recruitment (OCR) program is an excellent venue for employers to convey career opportunities to students and alumni. OCR is also a wonderful networking system to promote internships, focus on specific majors, and target opportunities in geographic regions. Employers may also request to visit classrooms and lecture halls to share company perspectives, labor market trends and profile emerging career options.

OCR begins October 1st and ends in April 30th. Organizations are required to select their recruitment dates by creating a new user name and password or logging on as a return user to https://desu-csm.symplicity.com/employers/. Employers may also review student resumes, post job openings and showcase their business on this site as well. Please contact the Career Services team at careerplanning@desu.edu or call (302) 857-6120 for assistance.

Join the Professional Network

The Professional Network option in NACElink is an excellent tool for employers to connect to DSU students and alumni. The network provides an exclusive, school branded database of professionals, alumni, and mentors, which includes comprehensive search tools and network member confidentiality controls.

Through the network, employers can serve as volunteer career advisors allowing DSU students and alumni to reach out and contact you regarding their career aspirations, your industry and employment expertise and experience. You decide how many students you want to interact with and how that interaction will take place (phone, email, or mail).

Through the Professional Network you also have the option of expressing interest to participate in the DSU Career Services Advisory Board, panels, presentations, resume critiques, and mock interviews.

Those interested can sign up through your existing login in NACElink. If you are not an existing NACElink user simply create a new user name and password at https://desu-csm.symplicity.com/employers/. Please contact the Career Services team at careerplanning@desu.edu or call (302) 857-6120 for assistance.

And as always, employers may also use NACElink to review resumes, post job openings and showcase their business to current DSU students and alumni.

Careers Exploration Day

The Career Exploration Day (CED) is held in October for fall semester and in March for the spring semester. Dates are determined in conjunction with the University campus-wide calendar. CED is designed for employers to share internship and permanent employment opportunities within their organizations with Delaware State University collegians at every grade level so that students may best prepare themselves to be marketable, exceed employer expectations and to efficiently transition from the classroom to the formal occupational setting. Employers can also make requests through Career Services to coordinate times in the classrooms where they present their company and industry highlights to the student and faculty body.

In collaboration with Career Services Cooperative Education program, employers are encouraged to form consortiums with faculty during CED to schedule times throughout the school year where collegians have coordinated classroom and on-the-job training sessions. This collaboration will also assist in developing experiential, active and engaging classroom instructions that will enable collegians to realize their full leadership potential along with the talent to understand and embrace workforce diversity, elements of change, effective communication and performance systems. Such a realization is essential in the process of selecting the career opportunity which will advance students' personal growth and professional development. Employers may view more information on the Co-op program at http://www.desu.edu/special/cpp/coopertive_education.php.
