5 Things You Need to Know Before Attending Business Horizons on Thur, Sept 17 from 10-4pm
Here are the five things you need to know before tomorrow's Business Horizons Career Fair.

1. Download the mobile app. 

2. Students do NOT need to register on the BusinessHorizons.org website prior to the fair. 

3. Do not bring your backpacks. This will save you time. If you must bring it, you will be required to check it in Squires 219.

4. Be prepared and arrive early. Students must check-in outside of Old Dominion Ballroom to get a name tag and materials.

5. Keep your schedule open Thursday evening and Friday for invitations to info sessions/mixers and interviews. Check your email and answer your phone from unknown numbers. Approximately, 750 interviews from 40 firms will occur on Friday.
