New Feature - Career Connect Alumni Spotlight!
Be on the lookout beginning next week for a special new addition to your weekly e-newsletter:  Career Connect Alumni Spotlight!

Each week we'll feature a Pamplin graduate to give you more insight on your career search process.

We'll hear about where they are working now, how they found that job, and what career related steps they took while in Pamplin to set them up for success.

Pay close attention to the career tips each person will give to students. These are tips that specifically helped this graduate set themselves up for career success, and these could be great ideas for you to implement into your career search process!

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.

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!
