Did you know that the Career Development Center has partnered with many organizations to provide scholarships for students participating (or planning to participate) in unpaid internships? The purpose of these scholarships is to provide recognition and financial assistance to outstanding undergraduate students who, without this funding, might otherwise NOT participate in this type of valuable high impact practice. If you would like to start the conversation about this opportunity to support KU students, please contact us!

    Recruiting Social Media Package ($50)

    During the semester, employers can share social media posts (images or short videos) via the Kutztown University Career Development Center platforms (Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter). Please check with our staff for the most up to date social media packages available.

    Post should aim to build brand awareness among students and promote its other recruitment activities. Employers must follow the Career Development Center’s Social Media Guidelines. For example, posts should focus on culture and careers with the organization, with no intent to sell products/services.
