Recruitment Policy
天美传媒 Cox asks employers keep offers open for a minimum of three (3) weeks following the student’s receipt of the written offer. This allows students to complete any in-progress interviews to which they have already committed and make an informed decision. Providing ample time for students to consider offers also reflects positively upon your corporate culture, giving students confidence they will ultimately be treated well as an employee. Finally, while it is against the 天美传媒 Cox code of conduct for students to renege on offers and doing so typically results in permanent loss of access to our services, students have been known to renege if they feel forced into signing an offer due to a very tight acceptance timeline. Allowing a minimum of three weeks not only benefits the student but has proven to be a best practice for companies to yield top talent. Thank you for abiding by this guideline when recruiting from 天美传媒 Cox. For companies wishing to extend full-time, post-graduation offers to summer interns, the 天美传媒 Cox Career Management 天美传媒 has found that a deadline of at least November 1 is a best practice. This affords the student time to reasonably weigh options before committing to an offer.
