Recruiting Policy

All employment professionals recruiting Computer Science & Engineering students through the Allen School and other on-campus recruiting channels, such as the UW Career & Internship Center and other established College or University programs, are required to work within a framework of professionally accepted recruiting, interviewing, and selection techniques as stipulated in the NACE Principles for Professional Conduct.

To provide students with sufficient time to complete their employment search and make well informed decisions, we ask employers to abide by the timelines outlined below. Candidates should be given a a substantial response time to make an informed decision once an offer has been extended. We recommend that you allow sufficient time for students to reflect, consult trusted connections and make an informed decision. Additional considerations can be found at the NACE website. Failure to follow these policies may be detrimental to our students and may result in limiting employer access to school recruiting activities.

Students shall be given a minimum of 3 weeks to decide whether to accept a full-time offer or internship offer, or until the following deadlines, whichever is later. Exploding offers and special incentives, such as diminishing bonuses or location preferences, should not be used to encourage early acceptance of an offer. Signing bonuses should be honored whenever a student accepts an offer or distribution should be clearly outlined in the offer letter.
