Employer Usage Policies

The UC San Diego Career Services Center serves employers that offer bona fide full-time, part-time, internship, volunteer or fellowship positions to students and UC alumni.  All employers must adhere to Equal Employment Opportunity guidelines and NACE Guidelines for Professional Practice. Employers are prohibited from posting positions that request donations, non-refundable fees, investments or have items or services for sale.

We reserve the right to refuse service to employers at the discretion of the Career Services Center Director due to any objectionable activities, including, but not limited to: requiring at the time of application personal information such as bank and social security numbers; misrepresentation by dishonest information or absence of information; student complaints; fraud; failure to adhere to Career Services Center policies or any violation of University of California, local, state, or federal laws.   

Third-party recruiters may take advantage of all employer services and other events sponsored by the Career Services Center provided they:

  • Identify themselves as a third-party recruiter on their employer profile and all job announcements.
  • Charge no fees to the candidate.
  • Identify, upon request, the name of the actual employer they represent and permit verification of this information.
  • Provide a position description for valid openings.
  • In accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, release candidate information provided by the university exclusively and only to the identified employer. Re-disclosure of candidate information is not permitted.

Employers with commission-based or franchise opportunities may take advantage of all employer services and events provided they:

  • Disclose that compensation is based partially or solely on commission.
  • Do not require payment of non-refundable fees for training and/or materials.
  • Do not require that any part of the compensation be associated with recruiting others.
  • Disclose the opportunity is running one's own business through a franchise.
