CGSM ONLINE OVERVIEW
AND OP PREPARATION
New student resumes are available in CGSM Online, The Consortium’s online career center, by mid-May.
We suggest you explore the database to identify potential internship hires and contact these students before the OP.
Tips for your OP preparation:
• Use targeted e-blasts to engage students prior to the conference to let them
know you will be participating in OP events and welcome them to The
Consortium family. Targeted e-blasts must be submitted to CGSM by May 21.
• Text-based e-blasts are the preferred submission method with images and logos
attached separately. Contact Jeff Farris prior to submitting HTML e-blasts.
• Invite students to attend all networking opportunities where your organization
has a sponsored presence.
• Be sure to include The Consortium alumni to recruit and represent your
organization so they may share their first-hand experiences.
• We encourage the attendance of your diversity and college relations officers and
staffing executives, as well as your senior-level hiring managers.
• Keep the communication lines open. Invite targeted students to your campus for
summer camps or other recruiting events.
