Employers

• How do I connect the business or organization I work for to Jobs PLUS?

  Give us your contact information and we will reach out to you with more information.

• Is there a fee to participate in Jobs PLUS?

  No. NIU provides the program at no cost to an employer. We do ask that you allow your employees who are NIU students to attend on their paid work time. We have a check-in process at each Jobs PLUS event and will report back to you which of your employees attend a Jobs PLUS event if they received permission to attend on paid work time.

• How many Jobs PLUS events do I have to allow my employees who are NIU students to attend?

  This decision is entirely up to you. You can give your employees permission to attend a specific number of events or choose which events they can attend on paid work time. Alternatively, you can give them the choice based on their interests.

• Where are the Jobs PLUS events held?

  Our goal is to schedule Jobs PLUS events within a close proximity to you so that we can maximize the convenience for you and your employees who are NIU students.
