Offer Letters and Making Decisions
It's about the time during the fall semester when many of you will be going on final interviews and receiving offers of employment. You've worked so hard and accomplished so much to get these offers, but that does not mean the decision is always easy!

This can be a stressful time in the semester, and you may have many questions that arise during this process.  Please reach out to me at jcarty@vt.edu to schedule a meeting so we can sort through your questions.

Company Days in the Pamplin Atrium
Company Days are when firms come to the Pamplin Atrium and setup booths for students to learn more about their employment opportunities. Firms will distribute food, swag and info about their company. This is a great opportunity to connect with recruiters in an informal way. Firms will typically be there from 10am-2pm each day.

Tuesday, October 13 - The Bozzuto Group

 
Bank of America

Bank of America has multiple technical opportunities available! Deadlines are quickly approaching for applications for the Developer and Business Analyst positions.  Apply on Hokies4Hire by October 15th to be considered!  The selection and interview process for these positions will move quickly, so do not delay in applying!  

Fall Connection Job Fair- October 20th 10am-4pm 

If you are still seeking employment opportunities, please plan to attend the University Career Services sponsored job fair, Fall Connection.
  
Of the 69 firms listed to attend, at least 30 have indicated that they are interested in hiring business students in at least one or more majors.

Some of the firms in attendance were also present at Business Horizons this year or have attended in the past. This could be a second chance opportunity to talk with employers that you may have missed during Business Horizons in September.  

Fall Connection will host companies seeking students from all colleges at Virginia Tech.  Because of this, there will be fewer business students in attendance than Business Horizons, so the lines to speak with firms seeking business students will likely be shorter. With fewer business students in line for these opportunities, your chances of speaking with recruiters and getting an interview may be greater!
