within a framework of professionally accepted recruiting, interviewing, and selection
techniques. Employment professionals will provide accurate information on their organization
and employment
- opportunities. Employing organizations are responsible for information supplied and
commitments made by their representatives. If conditions change and require the employing
organization to revoke its commitment, the employing organization will pursue a course
of action for the affected candidate that
is fair and equitable.
- Neither employment professionals nor their organizations will expect, or seek to extract,
special favors or treatment which would influence the recruitment process as a result
of support, or the level of support, to the educational institution or career services
office in the form of contributed services, gifts, or other financial support.

organization on campus, and will respond to reports of noncompliance.
Principles for Third-Party Recruiters Definition of third-party recruiter:
- Third-party recruiters are agencies, organizations, or individuals recruiting candidates
for temporary, part-time, or full-time employment opportunities other than for their
own needs. This includes entities that refer or recruit for profit or not for profit,
and it includes agencies that collect student information
to be disclosed to employers for purposes of recruitment and employment;
- Third-party recruiting organizations charge for services using one of the following
fee structures:

rendered or a fee based upon the applicant鈥檚 starting salary once the applicant is

applicant鈥檚 starting salary once the applicant is hired by the employer.
- Fee for service鈥擳he employer pays a fee for specific services, e.g. job postings,

- The above definition includes, but is not limited to, the following entities regardless
of the fee structure used by the entity to charge for services:
- Employment Agencies鈥擮rganizations that list positions for a number of client organizations
and receive payment when a referred candidate is hired. The fee for listing a position
is paid either by the firm listing the opening (fee paid) or by the candidate who
is hired.
- Search Firms鈥擮rganizations that contract with clients to find and screen qualified
persons to fill specific positions. The fees for this service are paid by the clients.
- Contract Recruiter鈥擮rganizations that contract with an employer to act as the employer鈥檚
agent in the recruiting and employment function.

may apply. The data collected on job seekers are sent to prospective employers. Fees

- Temporary Agencies or Staffing Services鈥擳emporary agencies or staffing services are
employers, not third-party recruiters, and will be expected to comply with the professional
practice principles set forth for employer professionals. These are organizations
that contract to provide individuals qualified to perform specific tasks or complete
specific projects for a client organization. Individuals perform work at the client
organization, but are employed and paid by the agency.
- Outsourcing Contractors or Leasing Agencies鈥擮utsourcing contractors or leasing agencies
are employers, not third-party recruiters, and will be expected to comply with the

the organization no longer desires to perform, such as accounting, technology services,
human resources, cafeteria services, etc. Individuals hired by the outsourcing or
leasing firm are paid and supervised by the firm, even though they work on the client
organization鈥檚 premises.
- In most cases temporary agencies, staffing services, outsourcing contractors, or leasing
firms will be treated as employers. However, should these firms actually recruit individuals
to be employees of another organization, then the third-party professional practice
principles shall apply.

of professionally accepted recruiting, interviewing, and selection techniques.

- Reviewing selection criteria for adverse impact and screening students based upon
job-related criteria only, not based upon the student鈥檚 race, color, national origin,
religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, or disability;
- Refusing, in the case of resume referral entities, to permit employers to screen and
select resume based upon the student鈥檚 race, color, national origin, religion, age,
gender, sexual orientation, or disability;
- Avoiding use of inquiries that are considered unacceptable by EEO standards during
the recruiting process;
- Affirming an awareness of, and sensitivity to, cultural differences and the diversity
of the work force;
- Investigating complaints forwarded by the career services office or the employer client

it in any manner.
- Third-party recruiters will not disclose to any employer, including the client-employer,
any student information without obtaining prior written consent from the student.
