Company Days in the Pamplin Atrium

  

Companies setup their booth in the lobby of the b-school and pass out information, swag, and food to students interested in their company. This is a great opportunity to establish a relationship with an employer and to learn more about their company and industry. Firms will be there from 10-2pm

Fall Connection Job Fair - October 14th

On October 14 from 10-4pm in Squires, Fall Connection job fair for the entire university will be held and is open to business students.

There are 7 firms that attended Business Horizons who will also be at this fair and 6 others who usually recruit our students, but were not at Business Horizons. The six are - Amazon, Hillstone, First Bank and Trust, Oshkosh, Vista Host and Vorsight.
