Principles for Employer Professionals
13. Promoting Acceptance of NACE’s Ethical Principles Within the Organization
"Employment professionals will educate and encourage acceptance of these principles throughout their employing institution and by third parties representing their employing organization on campus, and will respond to reports of noncompliance." (See Career Services Principle 12)
Intent / Rationale / Resources
The right of students and colleges to a fair process that rewards their principled recruitment participation and facilitation will be protected.
While a number of principles have been adopted that are specifically identified for employment professionals, the behavior outlined in these principles must be observed by all parties to this process, notably noncollege relations members who participate in the recruitment process and third-party representatives. This principle is aimed at ensuring that recruitment processes are fair and equitable to candidates and career services offices. An alumnus “pinch hitting” for a regular college recruiter should be oriented to the do’s and don’ts of principled recruitment practice. Managers and executives participating in on-site student interviewing should be similarly prepared. Students should not be placed in a situation where they are asked questions or required to participate in activities that the employment professional, adhering to NACE’s Principles, would never pose or initiate.
