For OCR opportunities, Starr is committed to working in the best interest of both our students and employer partners. We encourage employers to be understanding and willing to provide students ample time to carefully consider all of their employment options and to make informed decisions during the recruiting season. In an effort to establish a fair, competitive and ethical recruiting environment for both students and employers, Starr strongly encourages employers to abide by the OCR offer and date guidelines below.
As a student, you may ask for extensions beyond these recommended deadlines, however it will be at the employer’s discretion as to whether or not they can accommodate you. If you have any concerns and/or questions regarding an offer deadline that an employer has given you, please email us at CareerDevelopmentCenter@baruch.cuny.edu.
If you receive a full-time job or a returning summer internship offer from a company prior to the start of the Fall 2024 semester (August 28th), we kindly ask employers to give students until October 8th to make their decision.
If you accept an offer from an employer, it is unacceptable to renege so that you can take another opportunity.
