As a service to both our students and their potential employers, we use an online recruiting and job posting system called Spartan Career Path, which is powered by NACElink/Symplicity. With Spartan Career Path, you’ll be able to:

1. Post your jobs, internships, and co-ops to York College students and alumni for free. (Note: NACElink charges a fee for multi-school postings.)
2. Schedule on-campus interviews and information sessions/tables.
3. Register for upcoming recruiting events.

After logging in to Spartan Career Path, please complete your employer profile with as much information as possible to maximize your use of the system. The more information you provide, the more attention your company will get from students and alumni. Use our Employer Reference Sheet for more information about navigating the system. And check out our Employer section for info about internships and more.
