Student Career Case Management Built for the Case an Inbox Loses Track Of
A canceled interview, a stalled search, or an offer that needs negotiation support becomes a tracked case the moment a student reaches out, with an owner, a timer, and a record attached to it, not another message lost in a shared team inbox somewhere.

The career case that started with a canceled interview and ended in a lost trail
A canceled interview two days before finals lands in career services as an email, not a case, and if nobody opens a file, the student's job search from that point forward goes untracked. Career centers field these moments constantly: a rescinded offer, a ghosted application, an employer who stopped responding, a negotiation a student doesn't know how to run alone. Most still handle every one out of a shared inbox and whatever notes an advisor happens to keep on their own laptop, so when that advisor is out sick or leaves, the case history leaves with them.
Student Career Case Management Workflow gives every one of those moments an owner, a timer, and a record, from first contact through resolution. A case opens the same way whether a student walks up to a table at a career fair, emails the office, or logs it through the student portal, and it routes to the right advisor by issue type and urgency instead of whoever happens to answer first. Response and resolution timers run automatically and escalate before either deadline slips, advisor notes and the employer contact log live on the case record, and a director can finally see caseload and resolution time across the office.
What breaks when career case management runs on an inbox and a spreadsheet
No shared view of an open case
A student who emails a different advisor gets treated as a brand-new problem, starting the conversation over.
SLA exists only as a mental note
Nobody notices a case has gone quiet for two weeks until the student escalates it themselves.
Resolution notes live in someone's sent folder
When that advisor is out, the case stalls completely, with no way for a colleague to pick it up.
No caseload picture for the director
Staffing and outcome reporting get built by hand once a semester, if at all.
Six modules. Built for how career services actually opens, works, and closes a case.
Every module ships with default forms, routing, and dashboards. Configure each one to match how your office actually opens, works, and closes a case.
Multi-channel case intake
A case opens the same way whether it starts at a walk-in table, a career fair, an email, or the student portal.
Triage and routing board
Every open case is routed to the right advisor by issue type and urgency, visible to the whole team on one shared board.
SLA timers on every open case
Time-to-first-response and time-to-resolution are tracked automatically, and escalate before either breaches.
Resolution workspace
Advisor notes, the employer contact log, and next-step tasks all live directly on the case record, not a personal inbox.
Career resource knowledge base
A linked library of resume, interview, and offer-negotiation guidance advisors can attach straight to a case.
Caseload and outcome analytics
Volume by issue type, advisor load, and time-to-resolution, rolled up for the career services director.
From request to system of record in four steps
Report
A student or advisor logs an issue — a canceled interview, a stalled search, an offer needing negotiation support — through any intake channel: walk-in, fair, email, or portal.
Assess
The case is routed to the right advisor by issue type and urgency, with an SLA timer attached, not to whoever checks the inbox first.
Resolve
Notes, employer contact, and next steps are tracked against the case itself, not a separate inbox.
Record
The case closes with an outcome, and resolution and time-to-close roll into caseload reporting the director actually reviews.

Connects to your SIS and email; Banner and Workday stay the system of record
Kissflow does not replace Banner, Workday, or a dedicated career services platform. It is where an open career case, its notes, and its resolution get tracked, so a student's job search doesn't depend on which advisor happened to answer the email.

Built for how a career case actually gets lost
Routed by issue, not by inbox
A case is triaged to the right advisor by issue type and urgency the moment it opens, instead of sitting until whoever checks that inbox next.
An SLA that escalates itself
Time-to-first-response and time-to-resolution are tracked automatically on every open case.
Live in weeks
Intake channels, triage rules, and SLA timers are configured in the visual builder, and the AI Builder can generate a starting workflow from a description of your intake process.
An ERP-adjacent record
The SIS remains the record of enrollment and degree progress; Kissflow holds the case notes, employer contact log, and resolution history feeding a student's outcome.
A quiet case surfaces before it goes cold
Escalation reaches a senior advisor while the case is still open, not after the student has stopped responding.
Role-based access
Advisors see their own assigned caseload; the career services director sees the full office picture.

Get SupportNo. Banner or your SIS remains the system of record for enrollment and degree progress. Kissflow is where an open career case, its notes, and its resolution get tracked from first contact to close.
Student Grievance and Title IX Case Management runs a federally timed conduct and complaint process with investigation and hearing steps. This app has no conduct dimension: a case here is a student's job search problem, a canceled interview, a rescinded offer, a stalled application, routed to a career advisor for resolution, not a hearing officer.
Anything a career advisor would otherwise track by hand: a canceled or rescheduled interview, an offer that needs negotiation support, a student who has gone quiet mid-search, or an urgent request tied to a specific employer or deadline.
The SLA timer flags it before the deadline passes and escalates to a senior advisor, so a case doesn't go cold just because the assigned advisor is out or overloaded.
Yes. Intake channels, triage rules, and SLA timers are configured in the visual builder, and the AI Builder can generate a starting workflow from a description of your intake process.
Access is role-based. Advisors see their own assigned caseload, and the career services director sees the full caseload and outcome reporting across the office.
Configuration and AI-assisted setup typically move initial rollout to weeks, not a multi-month systems project.
