Awards
#TEawards
Why they participate
TalentEgg works closely
with employers and
students. I wanted to
contribute back to
TalentEgg for all the work it
does for students to bridge
the gap between business
industries and students.
I believe that being a part
of these awards is a win-
win; for employers to hear
from us so that they may
continuously improve and
innovate to build
successful and engaging
campus recruitment
programs that make both
of us happy!
15. Campus Recruitment Brochure
#TEawards
We need an incentive to
take the conversation
online â a simple list of
programs you offer or even
the inclusion of testimonials
from past student
employees sparks our
interest.
I like the connection to
online and social media
channels and the idea of
continuing the conversation
In a digital world, your
campus recruitment
brochure is an
introduction: an
advertisement
designed to draw
prospective recruits to
your digital properties
or in-person events.
16. Campus Recruitment Brochure
The most
compelling and
important parts of a
campus brochure
are testimonials
from relatable, real
employees and
targeted, clear
information.
#TEawards
Featuring real grads and
their testimonials is
excellent for students to
have role models to relate
to
I love how you had
individual brochures
for undergrads vs.
MBA students as
they have different
needs
17. The winnerâs
brochure humanized
their employer
brand through
testimonials, and
comprehensive, Gen
Y targeted information
#TEawards
Winner
Campus Recruitment Brochure
Identifying the different
positions available, listing
some of the actual projects
and having recent employee
testimonials on brochures
provides students essential
insight
This is by far the best
brochure I have seen.
This company clearly
understands the
needs and wants of
Generation Y
26. Accessibility rules!
Aside from being
mobile friendly, ease
of use/accessibility
is the most
important feature of
an effective campus
career website.
#TEawards
Campus Career Website
Ease of use
I like the ease and
accessibility of your
website. It is split into
subsections which make it
simple for applicants to find
the right position for them.
The use of graphics and just the
right amount of text makes the
site easy to navigate and all the
information needed is accessible
on the front page
27. The winnerâs
Campus Career
Website was
visually appealing,
easy to navigate,
relevant, and
straight to the
point.

Absolutely loved
the employee

models whom they
can compare
themselves to and
get a feel of the
corporate culture.
32. Consider 3 things when you think about online:
1. Itâs no longer a choice, itâs a must
2. Integrate, donât interrupt
3. The web is an infinite channel universe

I loved how you leveraged the options that
TalentEgg offers, allowing students to find job

also opportunity â
Use digital to

A rotational aspect within
the internship lets students
experience different career
roles and develop key skills
Interns want to get the
chance to do meaningful
work and take on
challenges.
Internships/Co-ops
Learning experience
Students are eager
to make an
impression and
derive value from
their experience,
which means that
having a
meaningful,
challenging co-op
or internship,
ideally with a
rotational aspect, is
top priority.

Feedback is one of the
most important tools that
any manager or
organization can give,
and it should be
ingrained at various

Developing real conversations
with people is how you get to
know if that company is the
right place for you to work, or
not
Campus Recruiting Programs
Engage
Top students are
most impressed by
organizations that
show a strong
commitment and
desire to hiring
students. This is
often accomplished
through
âengagementâ
Introducing video-forms,
where selected groups of
students can converse with
experts, would be a
fabulous effort!
70. #TEawards
Students love tours, or
being invited by
organizations to explore
their world. âA day in the
lifeâ profile is also a great
way to engage future
recruits.
Campus Recruiting Programs
Inform
Students donât know
what they donât know
yet. Help students
understand what itâs
like to work with you
through your program.
71. The campus recruiting program of
the year created an unstoppable

relentless offline presence.
