# Learn about guest posting

## uConnect's guest contributor portal allows external stakeholders — such as alumni, faculty, employers, and students — to submit blog posts, events, resources, and recruiting opportunities directly through the platform without needing to register an account. All submissions are held for admin review before publishing, ensuring the career center maintains oversight while still broadening its content reach and community engagement.

Career center staff aren't alone in influencing and supporting students as they prepare for future careers. External stakeholders such as faculty, alumni, employers and student leaders have valuable contributions to make.

uConnect's Guest Contributor Portal allows career centers to extend their reach and centralize contributions from these external stakeholders. The Guest Contributor Portalallows these contributor groups to participate in career conversations by posting announcements, events, resources, and recruiting opportunities — all under the career center's oversight.

### What types of content can guests contribute?

A few of the many uses for the guest contributor portal:

- Alumni can share about their career journeys or notify students of career opportunities within their company
- Faculty can offer career advice
- Students can talk about the steps they took to land a dream job or internship
- Employers can promote an upcoming visit to campus or showcase a new recruiting opportunity

### How do guest contributors actually submit a post?

Guests can find a link to the Guest Contributor Portal in the top-right corner of the career center's platform landing page. To invite a contributor, simply copy and share the portal URL directly with them.

Guests complete a simple CAPTCHA form and are taken directly into a clean dashboard — no account registration required. They select what type of content they want to post, then enhance their message by adding media, emoji's and gifs. Next, they fill in their author profile to let the community know who they are, and click submit.

Content does not publish immediately. Once a guest post is submitted, career center admins receive a notification that the post is pending review, and can then approve and publish it.

By centralizing external contributor content within the career center's platform, administrators can provide meaningful support to contributors, track participation trends, and use engagement data to inform and improve their outreach strategy.
