International Student Recruitment Best Practices

I thought with the NAFSA (nafsa.org) conference this week, it would be a good time to discuss some international marketing tips/strategies. The Chronicle of Higher Edcucation stated it very well this morning... "all schools want to internationalize". But how do you do it? How do you market out to prospective international students?

"King’s 2010 Recruitment Campaign Developed by King’s Students to Attract Future King’s Students" on SMR

September 24, 2009 @ 09:00AM King’s University College at The University of Western Ontario will launch its first-ever student recruitment campaign created by King’s students. The students enrolled in a third year marketing course in the Management and Organizational Studies program were charged by their client (King’s) with the development of a recruitment strategy that incorporates mobile, social and on-line marketing to create buzz with tech savvy high school students. For their campaign proposals, King’s students conducted extensive research including: focus groups, surveys, market scans and on-line research.

Using Social Media: Colleges And Universities Vs. Businesses

The youth of today , the “ Millennial ” generation, represents a tremendous communication challenge for everyone from parents and politicians to colleges and companies. Millennials thrive in an always “ on ” world filled with: They are in constant touch, updating their friends with texts ( 80 per day on average according to Nielsen), tweets and messages on the “ walls ” of their Facebook profiles.
This past month, the iBlog has done a wonderful job of discussing the inherent value of college internship programs from both an intern and corporate standpoint. Katie Meeker even went as far as providing an overview of the legality behind unpaid and credit based internship programs. I think everyone can now agree on the value that internships offer to college students as well as organizations. In addition to the mentorship aspect, internship programs have proven to be the best source of recurring entry level talent for competitive organizations across a wide array of industries. Now that we agree on the value of internship programs and university recruitment, it is important to strategically map out a tailored university recruitment campaign. Recruiting effectively at the university level, for both internship and entry level positions, is very different from experienced hire recruiting. http://www.icims.com/blog/post/2010/06/17/Mapping-out-your-University-Recruitment-Campaign.aspx

Mapping out your University Recruitment Campaign

Over the past two years, I’ve attended dozens of conferences related to campus recruitment which always feature at least one presentation on social media. And it’s not just campus recruitment conferences that seem obsessed with social media—the topic has been covered at every marketing, advertising, and ‘change’ related conference I’ve been to as well. Obviously, social media is an immensely popular topic in general. But why is it so popular specifically when it comes to campus recruitment? http://www.gurconnect.com/?p=2743

Do we really need a social media strategy? | .eduGuru

If you’re having a hard time convincing your administration that social media is worth the investment, try coming at it from a different angle — and I’m not suggesting writing the “social media strategy” we’ve all been hearing about lately. My theory? Piggy back on existing strategies at your university. Stamats Integrated Marketing conference earlier this month I was all jazzed up to write a social media strategy.
