Employer Instructions

There are a number of ways you can seek out and recruit our students. Keep reading to see some facts to consider.

Unlike most schools, BYU-Idaho holds three semesters a year. This allows you to have interns year-round. Students are available for internships in the following timeframes:

• January - Mid-April
• May - September
• Mid-July - Mid-December

It also means we hold three graduations each year, providing you with more opportunities to take on new full-time staff. Graduations are held in the middle of the following months: April, July, and December.

Employers can recruit in a variety of ways:

• Present at a seminar held every Thursday.
  Presenters share industry trends, case studies, or a challenge and how it was overcome. In the evening of the day of the presentation, an “info session” is held to share with students information about the company, benefits, job opportunities, and other such items. Students sign up for interviews that are held the next day.
  
• Attend the Design and Construction Management Career Fairs held throughout the year.
  One event is hosted each semester, paired with either a banquet or a golf tournament. The February and October career fairs feature a banquet, while the June event includes a golf tournament. These experiences provide valuable opportunities for students and employers to connect and build meaningful professional relationships.
  
• Visit campus to hold an information session in the evening and conduct interviews the following day.
  
• Post job openings on the campus jobs board.
  Send an email to Design and Construction management Department with job details, which will be delivered to students in the department’s weekly e-news letter.
