Recruiting Best Practices (Students)
Career fairs, meetups, and industry insight events are a great opportunity to gain exposure to a specific industry, job function or sector.
Campus Recruiting Program Policies (Employers)
Wellesley College has developed the following guidelines to promote an equitable and fair recruiting experience on behalf of our employers as well as our students. It is our expectation that employers who participate in campus recruiting become familiar with the following policies as well as reference these policies throughout the year.

Career Education expects all students to abide by the following rules in order to maintain the success and integrity of Wellesley’s recruiting program.

“Chuyue took a summer internship with our Asset Sustainability Group and worked on setting up and evaluating Fault Detection and Diagnostic (FDD) Rules within Ameresco’s Building Dynamics framework. Ameresco had been collecting data from the Wellesley building automation system and Sun worked on establishing the applicable fault detection and diagnostic rules. The final result was a report that could be run across numerous air handling units (across different buildings) for about 20+ FDD rules for a given period to identify when and how frequently the faults occurred.”
