Switch from eRecruiting to NACELink this Summer
On June 30th, 2014 our contract with eRecruiting will expire and has not been renewed. We are in the process of installing a new system (NACE Link / Symplicity) which will be titled Leatherneck Link. This is currently under construction with a completion deadline of within 6 to 8 weeks. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause to our students, employers, and alumni. We will inform you of more updates about Leatherneck Link.
