阿宾顿,爸爸. -将近400人 宾州州立大学阿宾顿分校 students met with recruiters from more than 80 companies and organizations at the annual Fall Internship and Career Fair, organized by the campus experts in career and professional development (CPD).
Students networked with representatives from employers such as Comcast, partner sponsor Enterprise Holdings, the Commonwealth of 宾西法尼亚, the City of Philadelphia, law enforcement agencies, and hospitals and health systems including Temple, 福克斯蔡斯癌症中心, Jefferson Health and Main Line Health. Northwestern Mutual sponsored a professional photographer to take headshots of the students.
“I had great conversations with a lot of employers about how to connect with them and about my resume. Interacting with them today was really helpful,” said a first-year student, who came to the career fair to develop his professional networks.
In the run up to the career fair, CPD invited all students to a variety of workshops to help prepare them for success. 工作一周, which is held the week prior to the fair, immerses students in networking practice and resume reviews with alumni and other volunteer professionals and offers them the opportunity to select professional attire at no cost through the campus Career 关闭t.
Students who attended these events reported positive interactions with recruiters at the fair, including one student who refined and retooled her resume after attending a workshop.
“We had so much preparation for the fair," she said. “我去了罗马尼亚, and they taught me how to make my resume more robust, and it boosted my confidence. I highly recommend using the career resources on campus."
Many firms make the annual 阿宾顿 spring and fall career fairs regular stops in their recruiting outreach, and the professionals in CPD, 主管领导 蒂娜Vance-Knight, advise students on researching and targeting specific companies and developing effective talking points.
“Career development is about preparation, and when met with a little luck, 你找到了成功,”她说。.
CPD provides services to current students and alumni searching for full- and part-time positions as well as internships and co-ops.
