On-Campus Employment Interviews Per Graduating Student

<p>Here's a college ranking I would like to see. You would count up the total number of individual on-campus interviews for full-time, career employment after graduation in each academic year, and divide that by the number of students who will graduate in that year's graduating class. That would provide an estimate of how desired graduates of that college are in the job market. I'm sure at some colleges the quotient would be greater than 1, that is that there are more interviews that could lead to a job offer than the number of students available to accept job offers. And I'm sure that at some colleges that quotient is well below 1, and very like a full order of magnitude lower than at the highest-ranked colleges. Does anyone have any figures on this? This seems like something that collegehelp or some of the other statistics mavens here could find figures on.</p>

<p>Why does it have to be an on-campus interview?</p>

<p>I've had plenty of interviews off-campus at the place of business, but they weren't any less important or formal than my on-campus interviews.</p>

<p>Thanks for asking that interesting question. The reason I was curious about on-campus interviews is that they are convenient for students, especially on-campus interviews by employers based in cities far away, and they are a proxy for employer interest in graduates of that college. But, yes, if a student gets an interview anywhere that leads to a job the student likes, that is a good thing.</p>

<p>ohhhh, yes, please share....I'd love to see this as well.....I would imagine that it will definitely ruffle some feathers around CC.....</p>

<p>Thanks, rodney, for expressing your interest in this. Has anyone seen figures from any college announcing how many on-campus interviews there are at that college each year?</p>

<p>Most schools do not keep this data overall. Business and engineering schools within universities are the most likely to have such data for their majors only. Schools vary all over the map in placement offices. Some are centralized and others operated by each college or school within the university. You won't find much.</p>
