Internships: The Career Center acts as a clearing house for advertising paid and unpaid internships. Internships for academic credit are coordinated through the student’s academic department. The University’s Cooperative Education (Co-op) Program is administered by the Career Center. Co-op Employers provide on-site training opportunities which are directly related to a student’s major. Students are paid by their employer, receive a grade from their Co-op Instructor, and receive recognition on their official transcript for the participation in Co-op. Therefore, Co-op is an academic course and must follow the academic calendar.

There are many benefits to participating in Co-op: • Employers are able to choose from

a Pre-screened list of candidates • Only candidates with excellent

academic records who have proven their desire and ability to gain real world experience are admitted into the Co-op program

• Students are invested in succeeding in their Co-op experience because they will be receiving a grade along with experience and professional development

• Employers will be able to establish a pipeline of highly motivated new professionals for their organization, which can help build a stronger and more capable future workforce

• Employers will create brand awareness for their organization on campus amongst the students that they wish to hire

Student Testimonial Level Joseph, MIS “Utilizing the Career Center's cooperative education program I found a position as a Web Communications Support Student with Seminole Electric Cooperative. Through this position I gained experience in my major that I can apply to any future positions. The counselors at the Career Center were helpful and insightful when assisting me with my resume and interview skills. They are a definite factor in aiding my success in finding an internship and to my professional maturation. I'm thankful for their services.”

Internships & Co-Op


Interviewing at USF On-Campus Interviews take place in the Career Center in our Interview Suites, providing you with a comfortable location that allows you to meet with many students in one visit to campus. You may interview for full-time positions, internships or co-op positions. Scheduling interviews is made easy through Career Connections. To schedule interviews just log into you account and get started!

There are 2 types of interviews you can schedule, Pre-Select and Open.

Report A Hire Be sure to report the number of interviews you had, the number of offers you extended and the hires to the Career Center via Career Connections or by contacting XXX.

On-Campus Interviews (OCI)

Preselect: This interview method is used by employers who select interview candidates by pre-screening their resumes. Sign-ups are based on a structured timeline.

Open: This interview method is used by employers who will interview any candidate whose qualifications match their hiring criteria. Sign-ups are based on a first-come, first-served basis.


Each semester the Career Center coordinates numerous fairs and events related to employers recruitment efforts. These events can assist you in finding qualified candidates

and branding your organization on campus.

“Prepare for the Fair” events: Events are held the week prior to the Career Networking Fair each semester to prepare students for the fair. Employers are invited to present a career topic. This is a great recruitment strategy for organizations who would like to increase their visibility on campus prior to the fair.

Statewide Job Fair: This event is coordinated by all of the Florida state universities and is held in mid-May at the University of Central Florida.

Have a great idea for an event you would like to host on campus? Tell us about it! We are always looking for fun and innovative events to host with employers on campus.

Events on Campus

Career Fairs: There are several fairs that take place throughout the year, including the Career Networking Fair, which is a campus-wide career fair for organizations hiring for full-time, co-op, and internship opportunities held once per semester, the Internship & Part-Time Job Fair, which provides organizations with an opportunity to meet with potential candidates for internship, part-time and/or summer employment held each semester, and the Public Service Career Fair, held in the spring to provide employers from government, health care, law enforcement, non-profit and other public service organizations the opportunity to discuss their employment. All events are open to all USF students and alumni.

USF Career Center Policies

On-Campus Interview Policy Only direct hiring organizations, seeking candidates for internships, Cooperative Education, and full-time employment (requiring a degree) may conduct scheduled on-campus interviews. The Career Center does not establish the hiring qualifications for the hiring organization. Employers must adhere to equal employment opportunity laws and principles for employment professionals as outlined in the National Association of College & Employers' Principles for Professional Conduct for Career Services and Employment Professionals. Employers may choose an Open and/or Pre-select interview schedule The Career Center, through Career Connections, will allow only those candidates with matching qualifications to apply for and schedule an on-campus interview with the hiring organization. On-campus interviews are conducted in the Career Center, 8:30-4:00, Monday – Friday, except for official University holidays. Employers may schedule the interview time that best complements their interview process. The Career Center reserves the right to refuse any direct hiring organization from participation in on-campus interviews. Employers having any “upfront” fees, training or product purchases must disclose this in the job description prior to the interview. Employers must note if the position for which they are hiring is unpaid and optional for credit in the job description, prior to the interview. Right to Refuse: The Career Center reserves the right to refuse the on-campus interview service to

student/alumni, hiring organization and/or individual recruiter.

USF Career Center Policies – Third Party Employers

Right to Refuse: The Career Center reserves the right to deny access and participation to any third party employer.

Third Party Employers The University of South Florida Career Center works with selected Third Party Employment Services (TPES), doing business as a direct employer or as contractor with the direct hiring employer, to provide students access to their employment opportunities. Since the Career Center can neither research nor endorse TPES agencies, guidelines have been established for the protection of students and alumni. The Career Center, using due diligence, ensures to the best of its ability that third party employers participating in recruitment are operating as an employer as well as adhering to NACE state and federal ethical and legal recruitment standards and principles.

Definition of third-party employer: Third-party employers are agencies, organizations, or individuals recruiting candidates for temporary, part-time, or full-time employment opportunities other than for their own needs. This includes entities that refer or recruit for profit or not-for-profit, and it includes agencies that collect student information to be disclosed to employers for purposes of recruitment and employment.

POLICY Any TPES that is not defined as an employer (see definition above) is not eligible to use career center recruitment services. However, these TPES may send a job listing for inclusion in a Third Party Employer Notebook, maintained in the career library. • TPES that charge a fee to the candidate will make them ineligible to use any recruitment service • Any TPES agency that is recruiting to fill their own agency position; will have the same access to recruitment services

as any other direct hiring employer. • Any TPES that is the direct hiring party (temporary or staffing service) or contracted to work as or provide a service to

the direct hiring party (outsourcing contractors or leasing agents)is eligible to use all career center recruitment services.

• Before any TPES may advertise a position for one of their clients they must identify the employer client to the Career Center. The name of the employer client must be listed in the job advertisement. The advertisement must also clearly indicate that the candidate will be working through a third party agency. If the TPES does not release this information or is unwilling to make the employer client name pubic, the position will not be advertised. Under no circumstances will positions be advertised for which a direct employer has interviewed or plans to interview candidates through the Career Center’s on-campus interview program or has already posted the position with the Career Center.

• TPES must agree to the following before being allowed to use any recruitment service: • NO fees will be charged to the candidate(s) at any time throughout the employment process. • That they and the client organization they represent is an equal opportunity employer. • Information about the candidate(s) will be distributed ONLY to the client organization of the position being

advertised and will not be referred to other positions and/or client organizations. • Will disclose to students the name(s) of the client, or clients, that the third-party recruiter is representing and

to whom the students' credentials will be disclosed. • Third-party recruiters will not disclose to any employer, including the client-employer, any student

information without obtaining prior written consent from the student. Under no circumstances can student information be disclosed for other than the original recruiting purposes nor can it be sold or provided to other entities.

• Third-party recruiters attending career fairs will represent employers who have authorized them to recruit on their behalf and will disclose to career services the names of the represented client employers.

Any reported breach of these policies and/or agreement will result in de-activation of the TPES on-line account and termination of access to all recruitment services.
