April 20, 2014
We have at least 125 seniors who are still looking for full-time employment, and I am sure many more are still seeking summer internships. With only 4 weeks remaining, what can you do?   

On Tuesday, April 22 at 5pm in Pamplin 1045, we will be hosting - No Job, No Internship, No What? 

Come learn strategies you can implement to be successful late in the academic year, and prepare for next year's fall recruiting season. 

On Thursday, April 24 starting at 10:30 am, Nielsen and Vanguard will both be in the Pamplin Atrium to talk to all students. This is a great last minute opportunity to visit with two giants. 

Finally, read the opportunities below and contact the recruiters. They may not be your ideal jobs and internships, but your options late in the year are more scarce, plus, the chances of landing these opportunities is much greater.
