What is Campus Recruiting?
Register for DAWGlink to connect with the over 1,200 companies that visit UGA to recruit students and alumni for entry-level, full -time positions, and internships. These companies represent an important group because they have identified UGA students and alumni as a good fit for their organization. Organizations recruiting on-campus come from a variety of industries, but typically represent computer-related, banking, financial services, consulting, retail, and manufacturing companies. However, we also host a number of education, non-profit, and government organizations seeking to recruit UGA students.
How does Campus Recruiting Work?
We manage all Campus Recruiting activities through DAWGlink which you can access from the Career Center homepage 24/7 at www.career.uga.edu. DAWGlink allows you to review the companies who have scheduled campus recruiting activities and submit your resume for consideration. In addition, it allows you to schedule interview times if you are selected to interview for a position.

Can I cancel my interview?
YOU CAN CANCEL UP TO 48 HOURS BEFORE YOUR INTERVIEW - failure to appear for a scheduled interview is a discourtesy, which recruiters and the Career Center take very seriously. A significant number of no-shows may result in recruiters not returning to campus and permanently affecting future UGA students seeking employment.
Students unable to keep an appointment for a campus interview must cancel the interview through the DAWGlink scheduling system by noon, two working days prior to the scheduled interview time. Students who fail to cancel their interviews in time and students who fail to appear for scheduled interviews may lose their interviewing privileges at the Career Center.
