Request Dates

We will begin accepting request for 2012-13 recruiting on Monday, April 16. Requests for interviews received by Monday April 30 by 5 pm will be reviewed together and dates booked based on company request and schedule parameters. No preference is given to early request submissions. Every effort will be made to confirm dates by May 27, 2011.

Submissions received after 5:00 p.m. EDT on April 30 will be processed after May 11, in the order received.

Please log into COIN, the School's Career Opportunity Information Network, to submit your date request. This interface gives you the ability to:

  • Request on-campus recruiting dates & presentations
  • View and manage your on-campus recruiting schedules
  • Invite students
  • Enter and manage job descriptions
  • Manage company presentation details
  • Manage company contact information
  • Post off-campus jobs for MBA Students, Executive MBA Students, and Columbia Business School Alumni
  • Collect resumes for off-campus job postings

Corporate presentation dates may be requested at the same time an employer requests interview dates, but will not be confirmed until interview dates have been finalized.

If you are having any difficulty with the system, please contact your account manager or the Career Management Center at 212-854-5471.

Open/Bid Schedules

Companies utilizing open/bid schedules have found it a beneficial way to discover quality candidates who were not otherwise identified. The CMC encourages firms to hold open or partially open schedules to allow students interested in the firm to bid on interview slots. Contact your account manager to learn more about the open/bidding process.

International Recruiters

Firms outside the United States should not disrupt final exams by scheduling interviews between December 11–21, 2012. International recruiters with global travel schedules who wish to hold callback interviews immediately following their on-campus first-round interviews should schedule those interviews no earlier than October 17, 2012, for full-time recruiting or January 16, 2013, for internship recruiting. Offers for internships may not be extended until January 18 and must remain open and unchanged until February 22, 2013. Firms that need to request an exception to this policy should notify the CMC as soon as possible for full evaluation of feasibility.
