CENTER FOR CAREER AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT EMPLOYER SERVICES The Moravian College Center for Career and Civic Engagement provides a comprehensive array of services to assist companies and organizations with their recruitment needs.

Recruit Moravian College StudentsAs America’s sixth-oldest college, Moravian College has been pushing boundaries in small ways that have big, lasting impacts since 1742. That’s when a 16-year-old girl founded the College as the nation’s first school to educate women. Almost 275 years later, Moravian College gives 1,600 undergraduates eye-opening, heart-racing ways to discover their own little revolutionary spirits. Moravian College believes in the liberating power of the liberal arts. Which means students have the freedom to own their education in and out of the classroom. It’s not uncommon for our students to have an idea and make it a reality by building their dream club, major or company from the ground up. The benefit: they bring that take-charge, self-motivated spirit into the workplace. Our students don’t just learn how to study—they learn how to learn. And they’re ready to learn how they can make a difference as a member of your team.
