Other Ways to Market to Students

In addition to information sessions and on-campus interviews, we offer several additional ways you can market your organization in-person while on campus. Organizations that participate in these programs often find themselves better connected to the campus and get more out of their recruiting efforts.

Employer in Residence

The Employer in Residence program is an effective way to strengthen your organization's reputation on campus by providing the opportunity to interact with our talented students and brand your organization in a non-traditional manner. Generally, the employer will volunteer a period of time (usually a day) to offer a variety of services to the students—resume critiques, mock interviews, career advice, and networking.

Employer panels

As part of our Job Search Strategies course, we invite five employers from a variety of fields to participate in an employer panel. Each employer gives a brief overview of their company and career path, followed by Q&A with the students and instructors focusing on all aspects of the job search and the transition from college to the world of work. This can be done along with another event on campus, such as an information session or on-campus interviews.

Networking Nights

Our office co-sponsors Networking Nights with the Alumni Association each semester. These events are themed to cover certain career areas and designed to introduce students to various organizations and allow students to practice networking. Networking Nights we've had in the past include:

• Government, Law Enforcement and Security
• Social Service and Non-Profit
• Entrepreneurial
• Women in Careers
• Arts and Entertainment
• Marketing, Advertising, and Public Relations
• Global Careers
• Hospitality, Event Planning, and Tourism
• Sales and Management
• Life Sciences
• Writing, Editing, and Publishing

These events are reserved for 50 students and consist of company and career path highlights followed by general networking and mingling between students and company representatives. To see a list of upcoming Networking Nights, click here.

Career fairs and job fairs

Our office sponsors or co-sponsors nine career fairs each year. Like the Networking Nights, fairs are also themed. Attendance at our fairs has exceeded 4,000 students. Fairs are great opportunities to meet a lot of students at once. Those we currently offer are:
