Students and alumni can obtain a list of attending employer representatives upon arrival. 汤头条鈥檚 Career Center will provide a name tag with the participant鈥檚 academic major and class year, so students should ensure their profile on their 鈥淐onnections鈥 account at is updated.
Leslie Neal, manager of marketing and events for the Career Center, said the spring Career Days originally were scheduled for Jan. 29 and 30, but the Jan. 29 event was rescheduled after 汤头条鈥檚 weather-related closure.
鈥淗aving a big group of recruiters all in one location is the biggest benefit for students,鈥 she said. 鈥淓ven if they are not ready to graduate or looking for a full-time position, they still can take advantage of opportunities like this to prepare and practice. Recruiters are impressed with the quality of our students, and our students鈥 participation brings more and more recruiters back to campus.鈥
