What’s New at AfterCollege?

“But I’m only a Junior.  There aren’t any jobs out there anyway.  Why do I need to think about this now?”

The economy is turning around, slowly but surely. Whether you’re a sophomore or a senior, recruiters are looking at the candidate pool-  they’re not just waiting and watching either.  They’re investing in their Employer Brand, preparing for economic up-tic.  In much the same way that pro baseball scouts pay attention to high school talent, recruiters (and their “alumni champions”) are paying attention to college sophomores and juniors, developing a pipeline of viable candidates for the eventual recovery.

To help employers identify these target schools, AfterCollege has designed a featured announcement service that relies on metrics, not luck, to seek out the best talent.
