I know it may seem “hard” but once you get the hang of it signing up for an event on the BRIDGE is super easy…especially since if you are signed in to myBucknell, and on this page (for one), you can access the BRIDGE without signing in again.
OK so let’s say just got my email about this awesome panel happening on April 4th and want to go…here are the steps
- Sign into the BRIDGE
- Mouse over the “Calendar” tab and then click on “Career Center Calendar”
- You will see today’s events
- On the right you will see a calendar of the month and a drop down menu to “view another month”
- If you know the date of the event (like April 4th!) it’s easy! Just go to the date of the event (not the RSVP date) and the event should show up
- To sign up, click on the title of the event, in this case it says “Alumni Presentation – Name: Intelligence as a Career – Is it right for you and are you right for it?”
- Once you’ve selected the event you will see the description, more details and a box on the right with “Sign up information”
- Click “Signup” on the bottom of the box on the right hand side and you are all set.
- Next step…mark it on your calendar and we’ll see you for dinner and the Alumni Panel 🙂
Like I said, I know you glance at this and think, “7 steps?” but when you actually go through the process you will see it’s not really a process at all. I was trying to be very thorough to make sure I covered all the bases.
Here are a few more tips for the calendar:
- If you don’t know the name of the event you can go to “Calendar Search” (still under the calendar tab)
- Here you can search 2 different ways
- By Event Type:
- You will find a drop down menu of event types that should be fairly obvious (but not always!) so you may have to try a few.
- Example names include: Alumni Presentation, CDC Jumpstart, Career Fair
- By Employer Name
- For instance Zurich North America (here today!)
- I typed in “Zurich” and the employer comes up (for the most part you can use partial employer names)
- Click on Zurich North America
- On this page you will see 4 links right below the company name: Overview, Jobs, Events, Contacts
- Click on “Events” and you will see they are here today (3/30) for an info session
- Click on the event title (in this case “Zurich Info Session” and you will be at Step 5 on the above list
- By Event Type:
