Career Day opens the door for students
Corporations, state and federal agencies, and non-profit organizations were
among more than 80 exhibitors at Career Day 2005, held in the University Center.
The Placement & Student Employment Center, Counseling & Career Planning
Center, and the Office
of Cooperative Education sponsored the event.
Career Day provides a great opportunity for students to network with employers for career opportunities as well as part-time, co-op, internships and summer jobs.
“Career day was a great way to broaden your social network. I met managers, workers, and others in a variety of fields, and I got first hand answers about what certain employers are looking for. It is a great way to get your foot in the door early. Even if there are no job openings or internships available now, if you hand a representative a resume they will have your name and know that you are interested,” said senior Josh Colvin.
