BusinessWeek recently named OneWire one of "America's Most Promising Startups." And in late January, Business Insider
claimed that OneWire's use of "structured data," confidentiality, and a
bounty system puts us ahead of the competition. We are thrilled about
this recognition, especially because we know exclusive OneWire features
like these will get your students and alumni hired.
Partner Schools
More than 500 leading colleges and universities have partnered with OneWire.
Any candidate on OneWire has access to the hundreds of top firms that
seek candidates for their open opportunities, but only students and
alumni of OneWire Partner Schools have access to the full suite of
university tools that will help them advance their careers.

Recruitment and Placement
2010 Graduates are Hopeful for a Brighter Jobs Outlook
The
first unemployment figures for 2010 were released Friday, Feb. 5. The
unemployment rate dropped to 9.7 percent in January from 10 percent in
December - perhaps an indication that firms are already executing this
year's hiring plans. Now, some students are finally seeing signs of
economic improvement and are hopeful they will receive job offers in
the near future.
BusinessWeek reports that 2010 MBA students can look forward to an improved job market upon graduation. According to The New York Times,
MBA students from Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Sloan School
in particular expect success this year. When they recently tested
demand for summer internships and full-time opportunities, the MIT
students found that small- to mid-sized firms are expanding their
hiring plans, with high-technology, startup, and alternative energy
firms doing the most hiring.
Small- to mid-sized firms are
usually the driving forces behind increased employment in finance in
the United States. However, this trend holds true in many other
industries as well. Firms may be hiring, but your students need you to
connect them with those firms. So, what steps can your office take to
make sure your students are connected to precisely the right firms?
