The Workforce Recruitment Program for College Students with Disabilities (WRP) is a recruitment and referral program that connects public and private sector employers nationwide with students and recent graduates with disabilities who are qualified and interview through the program.

This year they have decided to conduct phone interviews.The deadline to initiate the registration online is September 25, 2013. Deadline to complete the application is September 30, 2013. Phone interviews will be scheduled sometime between October 1st and October 18th.

To qualify for the program students must have 1) a disability, 2) be a U.S. Citizen, 3) be a current full-time student or have not graduated prior to December 2012 (unless the severity of the disability precludes the student from taking a full-time course load).

To be eligible to interview the student must follow the steps on the attached flyer.

The possible opportunities are for both full-time and internships for all majors.

The program is run on an annual basis (fall semester). Students who interviewed with the WRP last semester will need to reapply this semester.
