Faculty and Staff Guidance

Essential Actions for Faculty and Staff

• Follow FERPA regulations concerning students’ rights to privacy.
• Before helping an employer connect with students concerning an employment opportunity, make sure the position is posted in CyHire so that all qualified candidates have an opportunity to apply.
• Do not allow individuals to speak to your class, conduct surveys, etc. unless the activity aligns with your course objectives. Technical and professional development presentations that benefit your students are encouraged, but granting company representatives special access to your captive audience for the purpose of recruiting or increasing name recognition should not be allowed.
• Do not allow employers to use College of Engineering building space for recruiting purposes during the day (8am to 4pm). This has the potential to interfere with the educational mission of the College and subject students to unwanted solicitation.
• Inform Engineering Career Services of any information sessions or interviews that your department will be hosting at the request of an employer.
• Do not participate in the selection process for interviews or job offers. The Dept of Labor will view you as an agent of the company, which can implicate you and ISU in lawsuits. Also, other employers view this as an unfair practice.

• Career Outcomes and Salary Reports for the recent academic year can be found on the Statistics page and similar reports by semester can be found in the Engineering Library on CyPoint (login required).
