Using NACElink
NACElink is a great tool for job searching. Jobs in a variety of areas are posted on a regular basis, and every Hanover student is given a log in.
To utilize it, take the following steps:
Log-In: Go to https://hanover-csm.symplicity.com/students
- Enter your username (your full Hanover e-mail address, including "@hanover.edu") and password (If you haven't accessed NACElink before, you will be provided a link where you can create your password).
- If you are unable to remember your password or need to re-set your password, type in your username and click "Forgot Password". The NACElink system will e-mail you a link where you can create a new password.
- If you have attempted a number of unsuccessful log-ins, you may need to clear your history, cookies, and cache to start fresh.
Update:
- Update your profile, verifying and correcting all tabs: Personal, Academic, and Privacy.
- EMAIL: You will need to update your e-mail address to your '@alumni.hanover.edu' address or another personal (but professional) e-mail address you will be using. THIS WILL ALSO CHANGE YOUR USERNAME TO YOUR NEW E-MAIL ADDRESS.
- Personal and Academic: Complete your profile - You are more than just your e-mail address, which is all we placed on your profile. Complete the information, including current and correct contact information, your major(s), status (student vs. alumnus), and any other information.
- Privacy: Check your privacy settings and set them to your personal specifications. Passwords are not accessible by Career Center Staff.
Upload:
- Upload your résumé - Employers will have access to our résumé books, so upload your current résumé as document type "Résumé", and when it is approved, add it to the appropriate book(s).
That's done! Now, start job searching!
On your profile:
- Hover over the tab labeled "jobs & internships";
- Select and click CSM jobs (jobs we or employers have entered for Hanover students and alumni) or NACElink Network (NACElink's nationwide job network).
- From CSM Jobs, you can browse a list of recently entered jobs, or search for something specific.
- You can click on the job for full details, hover over the binoculars icon for a Quick View of the job, or click on the employer for their company profile, many with links to the organization's website and social media outlets.
- If you are interested in a position, follow the "How to Apply" instructions.
- From NACElink Network, you can browse a list of jobs that are available to all NACElink subscribers nationwide.
- For example, enter "Teacher" in the Keyword box, and the list will show you those positions related to "teacher".
- Enter a keyword for the type of position you are seeking, and/or the location in which you hope to work, then click "Search NACElink Extended Job Search".
- For example, searching for "Human Resources" in the Louisville, KY area yields a number of opportunities in HR in/around Louisville.
Never forget - Help is always available!
- There is a CMS help link at the top right of your homepage. There you will find some FAQs from NACElink, and we will populate this with questions you may have as more students log on.
- We are here if you need assistance - just call us at 812.866.7127, or e-mail us at careercenter@hanover.edu.
- We've added convenient links to our Résumé, Cover Letter, and the Art of Interviewing guides on your NACElink homepage.
What to do next:
- Log into NACElink regularly and CHECK BACK FREQUENTLY! We are entering new jobs on a daily basis and we don't want you to miss out on any opportunities.
- Keep your profile up-to-date, keep your résumé current and on-target, and let us know if there is anything we can do to assist you. Good luck!
