Employer Access to Candidate Information

Ivy Tech Community College does not provide open access to candidate résumés, information, or data unless the candidate has opted into Resume Books.

Employers can access candidate résumés in the global NACElink Network résumé database when candidates have elected to participate in that service. Candidates may remove their résumés from that service at any time.

Candidates with questions about the privacy practices and policies of participating employers should contact those employers directly.

Contact information for employers may be shared with approved Career Center partners to solicit support for Career Center programs and publications, such as Career Planning and Internships or Employer Information Sessions. Employers not wanting to be solicited in this fashion should contact the Career Center.
