Assist with a Career Center Event

Do you have expertise in a particular area such as salary negotiating, cover letter writing, etc.?  Presenting on a particular topic related to career development is a great way to connect with students who may not show up for a traditional company information session.  We recommend scheduling these sessions at least one month in advance so that we have plenty of time to market the opportunity to students.  Contact us to schedule your career development session.

Information Tables and Sessions

Any company wishing to recruit on campus should go through the Career Center to reserve space and to receive information on catering, if needed.  Organizations have the opportunity to set up a table outside or in the library atrium, cafeteria, or an academic building, or host an informational session their job and internship opportunities.  Our Career Resource Room in Lanier Hall provides space suitable for presenting to a small group of students.  We also host a variety of career fairs throughout the year and recommend that companies and graduate programs participate in these events in order to see the most students possible.  Graduate programs, in particular, should plan to attend the Fall Graduate & Professional School Fair.  When organizations want to provide food at their information session or table, they must use our campus catering services.  To set up an information table or session, contact Brittany Archer.
