How do I arrange interviews?
To request an on-campus interview date, login to Blugold CareerLink and complete the New Schedule Request Form.
Debbie Peterson, the Recruitment Coordinator, will contact you to confirm your interview date. If you have any questions, feel free to contact her at petersdk@uwec.edu or call 715-836-6018 or 1-800-939-8973.
How long in advance should I schedule the interviews?
You are encouraged to schedule interviews as early as possible so students will have the appropriate lead time to submit their resume to you. If you are interviewing on-campus, this will also give you the best selection of dates. Dates can be scheduled a semester or year in advance. However, a four to six week lead time is required for all pre-select schedules.
How do students participate in these interviews?
Students register to participate in Blugold CareerLink by completing an online profile and submitting a resume.
What type of company literature should be provided?
Position descriptions are very helpful and will allow interviewees to better prepare for the interview. In addition, we will accept recruiting literature or other materials to be distributed prior to the interview day. This should be sent via UPS or Federal Express to:

What about parking?
Visitors to campus must stop at the Visitor Center (located at the corner of Roosevelt and Park Aves.) Our office will reserve one parking space for each organization until 9 am on the day of the interview unless previous arrangements are made. Recruiters may pick up their Guest Permit at the Visitor Center.
If more than one parking space is needed, a Guest Permit may be obtained by contacting Debbie Peterson at petersdk@uwec.edu or 715-836-6018. Parking and no parking areas are posted throughout the campus. Vehicles parked in fire zone, expired meters, roadways and loading areas are subject to fines.
