    Shortlist campuses that meet the hiring requirements. Consider factors such as the reputation of the institution, courses relevant to the hiring, and the overall quality of talent produced.

  3. Campus relationship building

    Regular interactions with the campus authorities, faculty, and student organizations. Participate in campus events and collaborate on joint initiatives.

  4. Brand visibility enhancement

    Build up visibility on your employer brand on campus using these routes. Organize workshops, webinars, and guest lectures so people may understand about your company culture and other career opportunities open to apply.

  5. Optimize recruitment process

    Smooth out all the recruitment process. Candidate experience in this situation should be really very simple, friction-less and enjoyable. In this process, use a campus recruitment portal so one can efficiently send and schedule his interviews as well as candidates' tracking on all fronts gets easy.
