A. Students must apply to your position(s) in Crimson Careers to be eligible to schedule an interview.

B. If there are students who you wish to interview who did not submit an application through our Crimson Careers system, you must make arrangements with them separately. Students who do not apply through Crimson Careers cannot be added to your OCS Recruiting Program interview schedule and are not able to interview at the OCS Interview Facility when interviews take place on campus.

A. Events

• Event promotion fees may be refunded, less a $50 processing fee, if the event is canceled with two weeks' notice.

B. OCS Recruiting Program

• We are unable to refund canceled postings, reserved schedules or rooms. Please confer with your team prior to making reservations.
• Cancellations must be processed PRIOR to the Employer Preselect Date. Late cancellations violate the integrity of the program, and employers may be denied early registration privileges.

All employer partners agree to extend the following minimum considerations when arranging off-campus interviews.

A. Every effort should be made to accommodate candidates’ class and first-round interview schedules, as well as summer experience if interviews occur over the summer. Students should not be asked to take time off from a summer internship or other experience for an interview.

• One or more alternative dates must be offered to students for second round interviews.
• Employers may not assign students a second round interview time slot without offering options.

B. Employers must give students 72-hour notice to travel to interview. Please note for fall 2020: Recognizing the continued health and safety risks close-proximity events pose, the Harvard FAS Office of Career Services has made the decision to transition all fall campus recruiting events, career fairs, and interviews to a virtual format.
