Please choose only one geographical preference.
If it is not in this format, we will NOT include it.
All resumes will be sorted and shared with our 1,000 employer database at the end of next week. If employers are interested, then they will contact you directly. Over the years, we have had many examples of positive outcomes as a result of this effort.
Again, please carefully follow the directions before sending.
2. After Thanksgiving Break, we will host a couple of webinars to assist you before graduation.
3. Please schedule a 1-1 meeting with Stuart Mease (smease@vt.edu) or Emily Africa (eafrica@vt.edu) for further assistance and read this article.
4. If you are still seeking after the first of the year, I strongly urge you to attend the Spring Business Horizons Career Fair on January 29 from 1-6pm.
We cannot get or guarantee a job. You must be proactive. Help me help you. Help me help you.
