Business Horizons Spring Career Fair: January 27, 2016 (1pm-6pm) Registration Open!

The Business Horizons Spring Career Fair will be held on Wednesday January 27, 2016. Register now by visiting BusinessHorizons.org.

Interviews will be held on Thursday, January 28. To reserve interview space, please email Sarah Messer at sgkarlin@vt.edu.

Due to event spacing, if you plan to bring more than a handful of reps, I strongly encourage you to reserve 2 or 3 booths for the event. Multiple booths will be placed side-by-side. This will help with traffic flow for students and your neighbor exhibitors. Additionally, we will only be accepting payment by credit card.

Each year the fairs sellout. We only have 120 booths for this spring fair compared to the 160 in the fall. Therefore, I urge early registration.

Thank you for your interest in our students, and we look forward to seeing you this Spring!

Employment Opportunity WebEx

We've introduced an exciting and convenient new way for employers to reach Pamplin students about current hiring needs!

WebEx presentations are hosted by Career Services to allow companies the opportunity to spend 5 minutes pitching their organization and particular employment opportunities to an audience of Pamplin students. Students will follow up with employers for consideration of these opportunities if applicable.

The next WebEx will be scheduled for the last week of October. If you still have open positions from fall recruitment and would like to participate, please reach out to Jennifer Carty (jcarty@vt.edu).
