In past years, as the
school year winds down, institutions learn of new positions, or of
unexpected openings and have had to scramble to find qualified
candidates or face opening with vacancies.On the other hand, candidates that were unable to attend
a placement exchange during the academic year or were unsuccessful in
their original search have had to turn to the Internet or printed job
listings.
SPE will provide a face-to-face interview setting to fill those unexpected vacancies,
offer alternatives to the Web or print listings and allow institutions
to find candidates for those recently approved new positions.
All paid registrations are
provided one of two different sets of listings an Employer or candidate
listing. Registrations that arrive before the May 1st
deadline will be compiled, printed and mailed by Friday, May 4th.Registrations that arrive after the
deadline will be available upon arrival to SPE.Each candidate will receive a copy
of the employer’s job listings, and employers will receive a copy of
the candidate’s listing.A Web
site for listings is not available, but we have plans to include
this in the future.
The

SPE comes at the end of most fiscal years for institutions and are set
to be a very affordable option for face-to-face interviews in the early
summer.
