Specific Policies
1. The Centre has an open recruitment policy, that is, any
employer wishing to list a position or use Career Centre facilities to
interview students is permitted to do so, regardless of the nature of the
position involved, provided that
a) the duties and conditions of employment are clearly
stated and do not appear to be unlawful;
b) the position requirements and selection process comply
with the provisions of the Human Rights Code of Ontario and other applicable
legislation;
c) the position concerned is not the subject of a
labour-management dispute involving a legal strike.
2. The services of the Centre are ordinarily available
only to organizations recruiting for their own staff needs. When exceptions are
made and third party recruiters or recruiting organizations use the services of
the Centre, student users will be made fully aware of the implications of
dealing with such recruiters or organizations.
