Step-by-step guide Career Central for employers

Steps

1. 1. Check if your company fits Career Central

   The purpose of Career Central is to connect (former) students and interested employers. To sign up as an employer on Career Central, you first need to verify if your company aligns with the intended audience:

   • Are you looking for Radboud talent for open job vacancies and/or internships within your own company? Then you are welcome on Career Central.
   • Do you mediate in jobs for other companies? In that case, Career Central is not the right platform, and unfortunately, we cannot process your application at this time.

   To prevent duplication on the platform, we use Chamber of Commerce (KVK) numbers. If your organization doesn't have a KVK number or it's not available, please contact Career Central at career.central [at] ru.nl (career[dot]central[at]ru[dot]nl).

2. 2. Request a company profile

   1. Request a company profile at https://employer.nxus.nl/ using the 'request sign up' button.
   2. Please be patient. Your request will be reviewed by one of our staff members. You will receive feedback within two working days.
   3. Upon approval, you'll receive a confirmation email with your login credentials. If you haven't received a confirmation email within this timeframe, please check your spam inbox.
   4. You can log in using the credentials from the confirmation email. Don't forget to change the password after logging in.

3. 3. Complete your profile

   1. Fill in your profile with a short description and a slogan.
   2. Add URLs to your website and social media pages.
   3. Complete your profile with photos that represent your company.

4. 4. Post a job vacancy

   Is your profile complete? Then it's time to post your first job vacancy.

   1. After logging in, click on '+ job offer'.
   2. Fill in all details about the position.
   3. Enter all requirements for the position (such as field of study, level, language, skills, and knowledge).
   4. Check the preview of the vacancy to see how it will appear to students.
   5. After approval, you can publish the vacancy by paying 1 credit worth €50.

   After publishing, the matching process begins. All students who match the requirements you've specified (filled in at step 3) will see the vacancy. If interested, they can respond to the vacancy.

5. 5. Find a match

   Candidates will discover your vacancy through their personal list of matched vacancies. You don't need to do anything here. You can also invite candidates to apply yourself. Here's how it works:

   Inviting candidates to apply

   1. Under the 'recruitment' section, select the title of your posted vacancy. Here, you'll find the candidates under 'candidates' and the applications under 'interviewees'.
   2. Click on a candidate's title to discover relevant information about them (education, work experience, languages, knowledge, and skills).
   3. Invite suitable candidates to apply by checking 'invite to apply' and clicking the 'invite' button.

   Inviting applicant for interview

   If a candidate decides to apply, you'll receive a notification. You can also find the applicant under 'interviewee' in the 'recruitment' section.

   1. If the applicant is suitable, invite them by scheduling an appointment. The applicant can then confirm or propose an alternative time.
   2. Only after confirmation of the appointment you will gain access to the complete profile and can also contact them via chat.
