The students will learn about the various companies and their hiring needs through the CUED-IN website. They will also have the opportunity to speak with employers at the GLS Career Fair. The employers have the option to interview as many of the interested student applicants as they see fit during interview week in person on campus or virtually. Once you finish the ‘student evaluation form’ and give it to the career specialist, that will let New Horizons and the student know if a contingent offer was made. Once all interviews are conducted, the student will let the career specialist know which company they will accept their offer from. The career specialist documents all the information and relays that information to all the employers.

After the interview of candidates, if you decide that your company would like to hire a student(s). You let the
Career Specialist know the names of the student(s) whom you want to make a contingent offer to. Meaning they will start working ‘full time’ for your company contingent upon
● Finishing the New Horizons Program
● Graduating High School
● Being at least 18 yrs old
● Completing your official HR paper paper/ application
● Passing all background checks, drug tests, physical assessments/screening, etc.

If you made an offer to a student(s), both you and the student(s) will be recognized at ‘Selection Day’ where you will present a hat with your company logo on it. Your company is responsible for the purchase of these hats.

The default start date for students will always be the week after the July 4th holiday. However, some students do not turn 18 til later so they will have a later start date. You can determine your start date before or after the
holiday based on your business needs. Be sure to communicate that with the student during the interview so
that expectations are clear.

Resembling an “athletic signing day”, the Career Selection Day is a high energy celebratory event that publicly
acknowledges students, employers, community members and stakeholders at the culmination of the program.
The Employer presents the student(s) with the company hat and offer packet on the stage during a televised
event. Program graduates announce the employer team and career pathway they will be joining and proudly
enter into the “Good Life”.
