Referrals to Employers
Sharing Job Postings with Students
Have you heard about a job that would be a great opportunity for students? Simply email the position to the St. Paul Campus Career Center at spccc@umn.edu and we will contact the employer to ensure the job is posted on GoldPASS, the job posting site for students and alumni, where it will reach the widest audience of students.
Ethical Issues
As a staff member, you may have employers that contact you to request the names of quality students who can fill their open position(s). In order to be compliant with the University of Minnesota’s Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Policies, job opportunities should be shared with all students. Directing employers to GoldPASS is the most efficient way to ensure that all students will be aware of job opportunities. Once it is posted it is appropriate to encourage your top students to apply!
