This document sets out guidelines for ethical recruitment at the 海角社区 Career Planning Service (CaPS). These guidelines are intended to provide a framework for the professional relationships between employers, students, third party recruiters, and career educators.

Employers

It is the employer's responsibility to:

  • Comply with all relevant federal and provincial legislation as well as to follow federal and provincial privacy regulations.

The following are guidelines for employers with regards to:

1. Job Postings

  • All positions listed with CaPS must include the name of the recruiting organization, a contact name and an accurate description of job duties and responsibilities. In addition, information about compensation and benefits should be included.

2. Information Sessions

  • When arranging information sessions, CaPS books space on a first-come, first-served basis and it is strongly recommended that employers book early to avoid conflicts.
  • When scheduling on-campus recruitment activities, both employers and career educators should respect dates of religious and cultural significance.

Guideline:
Information sessions will ideally begin no earlier than the first Monday following Labour Day, but employers can request earlier dates to support their recruitment process.


3. Job Offers

  • Provide a reasonable amount of time (five to ten business days is recommended) for students to respond to job offers.
  • Confirm job offers and terms of employment in writing to students.
  • Inform the career centre regularly of the status of your campaign.
  • Honor all offers of employment.

Guideline:

  • Full-time job offers to students attracted via on-campus recruitment will have a reasonable amount of time for an acceptance deadline which is suggested to be at least 5 to 10 business days, however shorter timelines are anticipated within specific industry sectors, including, but not limited to capital markets and consulting.
  • Job offers to summer students are not subject to any minimum acceptance date rules; however, it is recommended that a minimum of 1 week be provided for job offer acceptance.

4. Complaints

  • We may investigate any complaints about organizations sent to us by students and we may investigate any complaints about students sent to us by organizations.
  • CaPS reserves the right to refuse access to CaPS' services and programs; this applies to both students and employers.

Third Party Recruiters

Third party recruiters are agencies, organizations or individuals recruiting students for employment opportunities with other organizations.

The following guidelines for third party recruiters have been established to best meet the needs of students, employers and career educators.

  • No direct referrals will be made for vacancies listed by third party recruiters without posting and/or contacting candidates with the information relating to the position.
  • Third party recruiters will be asked to identify their employer clients; career educators will treat this information as confidential.
  • Candidates' resumes must not be held in the files of the third party recruiter for later referral to other positions unless authorized by the candidate.

Guidelines Management:

  • When scheduling on-campus recruitment activities, both employers and career educators should respect dates of religious and cultural significance.
  • Guidelines should be determined and managed locally.
  • Penalties for non-compliance should be:
    • determined locally;
    • have local jurisdiction, be relative in severity to the associated infraction.
    • clearly indicated to employers, well in advance of the recruitment season.

In the event of an unresolved dispute between parties engaged in on-campus recruitment, CACEE members are invited to refer the matter, and any identified penalties, to the CACEE Ethics Committee for review and recommendation via the CACEE website at .

Employers with Commission-based and Franchise Opportunities

Some employers and franchise managers wish to publicize opportunities to 海角社区 students that involve one or more of the following characteristics:

  • Offer compensation that is based mostly on commission rather than on a salary
  • Offer no salary but, instead, offer students the opportunity to run their own business through a franchise
  • Require the payment of "up-front" fees for training and/or materials to enable the student to start up her/his own business
  • Charge the students penalties or fees for services if the franchisee decides to leave the program

Many students run successful businesses through these opportunities, but there are those who incur unexpected liabilities and find themselves in debt. Naturally, we would like to minimize the occurrence of such negative scenarios and ensure that our students are well informed about the potential risks and rewards of these kinds of opportunities.

Therefore, if you want to publicize your commission- based or franchise opportunities at 海角社区, we require that you do the following:

  • Under "Job Type", select "Commission/Franchise Opportunity"
  • In the "Description" section, ensure that you make clear the characteristics of your opportunity by including the following statements where applicable (you can edit them according to your particular situation):
    1. There is no salary for this opportunity. You will make money based on commissions that you receive from sales.
    2. There is no salary for this opportunity. All persons who work with our organization will be self-employed and will earn money if they make a profit when running their own businesses.
    3. You will be required to pay fees for training and materials before you can start working with us.
    4. If you decide to leave the program, you may be liable to pay fees and/or financial penalties.

We reserve the right to edit your description and to remove your posting if these rules are not followed. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
