Employer Guidelines for Accessing the Job Board

EMPLOYER ACCESS TO 51勛圖厙s ONLINE JOB BOARD:

As a member of the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), 51勛圖厙 adheres to the NACE Principles for Ethical Professional Practice and expects our employers to follow these . 

  1. Employers must agree to comply with all local, federal and state laws. Check to ensure the employer initials the EOE section on the registration form.
  2. 51勛圖厙 screens employers carefully to ensure they are legitimate, reputable and have legitimate jobs and/or internships to provide for professional growth for our students.
  3. 51勛圖厙 staff MUST connect with the authorized representative by telephone before access is granted.
  4. 51勛圖厙 works with staffing agencies/third-parties only under limited circumstances. NACE defines third-party recruiters as follows: Third-party recruiters 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."

a.   Staffing agencies must not require a financial investment or payment by the student or alumni for employment or placement. Under no circumstances should fees be charged to students or alumni.

b.   Staffing agencies must clearly identify their organization as a staffing agency.

c.   Staffing agencies must include the name of the company they are recruiting for in all postings.

d.   Staffing agencies may recruit only for clients they represent and each posting must clearly state that the position is being posted by the staffing agency on behalf of their identified client. Candidates names and/or r矇sum矇s obtained for a job opening may not be used for subsequent job openings or for solicitation of employer clients, except where specific arrangements have been initiated and agreed to by the candidates involved.

5. 51勛圖厙 reserves the right to refuse service or posting to any employer if a review of the specific opportunity is inconsistent with the colleges academic offerings and/or degrees or certificates.

6. Registrations submitted by non-U.S. employers that do not have offices in the U.S. will not be approved.

7. Businesses in the cannabis industry will not be approved while this industry is still illegal at the federal level.

8. Employers without an operational website cannot be given access. 51勛圖厙 will review the employers website to confirm the employers status and protect against fraud or illegal activity and request additional information when necessary to ensure established criteria are met.

9. Employers must provide valid contact information and have an operational email with a business entity domain. Personal domains will not be given access. Business addresses with P.O. boxes will not be approved.

10. 51勛圖厙 will not provide service to any employer requiring upfront payment of any kind or the purchase of products or work equipment/tools (with the possible exception of safety equipment, such as steel-toed boots).

11. 51勛圖厙 reviews each employer to determine if access will include ability to review students r矇sum矇s and educational information.

12. 51勛圖厙 does not recommend or select candidates for employers.

13. Approval of an account to post jobs/internships gives employers limited, terminable right to access and use the online job board site only for internal business use to seek candidates for employment and scheduling interviews with the company being reviewed.

14. 51勛圖厙 will review all businesses registered at a residential location with extra scrutiny. Work may not be performed at a residential home business, with the exception of home day care businesses that are licensed through the state and internships that meet the qualifications noted here. All postings approved for businesses registered at a residential location must state that the work will not be performed at the home of the business.

15. 51勛圖厙 does not send r矇sum矇s or share any employer passwords to corporate student ambassadors or student campus recruiters.

16. 51勛圖厙 staff will make additional checks at some of the following sites to verify the legitimacy of the business entity: Maryland State Department of Assessment and Taxation, Internal Revenue Service, Google, Federal Trade Commission, Better Business Bureau, various Chambers of Commerce, Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing, and Regulation, and/or professional organizations.

17. If 51勛圖厙 staff make a change to an employers account, the change must be authorized by the employer by phone or email and staff must document and date (including the year) the change in the notes section of the online job board.

JOB/INTERNSHIP POSTINGS:

  1. Postings must be real, current (full, part-time, seasonal) and relevant to company products/services.
  2. Postings must contain sufficient detail to convey clearly to the job/internship seeker the nature and basic requirements of the opportunity and that the position is representative of the company and its products/services.
  3. Check that the website being used matches that of the employer registration. Check/verify location of position. Check salary, including that entry-level jobs meet federal and applicable state minimum wage.
  4. Check that positions have relevant statutory language for the industry (e.g., bartending).
  5. 51勛圖厙 will review each job/internship description for consistency with the colleges academic offerings and/or degrees or certificates. If staff requires additional information, employers must provide the requested information to get the position posted.
  6. Unpaid internship postings with for-profit businesses will be reviewed based on the length of time and whether the business has provided an articulable benefit to the student(s) and will be approved at the discretion of the 51勛圖厙 internship coordinator.
  7. Postings or e-mail communications may not contain anything that is sexually explicit, obscene, profane, libelous, defamatory, threatening, harassing, or abusive.

Find Volunteers

Reach out to students and county citizens to promote your organizations needs and find volunteers who want to serve their community.

Your volunteer needs can make great, hands-on learning activities that complement classroom learning for our students. Student volunteers across every academic discipline can engage in short-term volunteer service individually, in groups or as a class to help meet the needs of your organization over the course of a term. Interested in becoming an official partner? Email service-learning@aacc.edu to get started.

Recruit Interns

Enhance and grow your organization with the skills and talents of 51勛圖厙 students through short-term, work-based learning experiences. No matter the tasks or the projects, 51勛圖厙 can help recruit potential internship candidates to meet your organizations needs. The Sarbanes Center is happy to explore options with you, so email us at internships@aacc.edu to begin the conversation.

What is an internship?

An internship is a monitored work experience that has intentional learning outcomes and goals for a student.

What are some benefits to hosting internships for your business?

Internships are not limited to being beneficial r矇sum矇 boosters for students, but are a great way to attract personnel for your business. An internship provides you the opportunity to have additional support to help your business accomplish goals or finish projects. Hosting an intern allows you the option to audition up-and-coming talent and provide guidance and leadership to budding professionals without the commitment of permanent employment. Internships are just as beneficial for businesses and employers as they are for students. 

As we look to the future and the uncertainty of on-site and in-person internships, please know that 51勛圖厙 wants to continue to explore meaningful ways to work together. Our team is available to discuss your organizations current and developing needs, and to brainstorm and explore ways in which 51勛圖厙 students can support those needs.

How do I get an intern for my business?

This is a partnership between the employer and our institution. 51勛圖厙 does not offer internship placements. We help identify viable talent for consideration. We work with businesses to understand their needs, clearly identify an application process and assist with recruitment. The employer determines the best candidate for the position, then notifies 51勛圖厙 of that decision.  

Here is a brief checklist to consider before offering an internship:

  • Follow  when deciding intern compensation.
  • Employers must provide workers' compensation.
  • Home-based businesses must be screened prior to approval to participate in 51勛圖厙s Internship program. Check out our Home-Based Business Checklist.

How can I recruit for my internship position?

Typically, we offer opportunities to participate in various student-centered activities hosted on our Arnold campus as well as 51勛圖厙 at Arundel Mills and the Glen Burnie Town Center to include internship fairs, presentations and interviews. Email 51勛圖厙's internship coordinator at internships@aacc.edu to discuss options for the upcoming term.
