Getting Involved

One of the best ways to build a reputation on campus and gain visibility is to get involved in student academics and activities.  For example:

• Participating in practice interviews and resume critiques with students
• Becoming a guest speaker for a student club (for a complete listing of LCB student clubs, click here)
• Participating in a career-centered panel discussion
• Hosting a group of students on an informational visit to your company
• Holding an information session about your company and industry

While several of these activities do not involve direct recruiting, the net result is that they get students interested in your company by virtue of the relationship you have fostered with them.

The following form will give you a checklist of ways to get involved with student in both on-campus and off-campus activities:

Job and Internship Postings

Often, the first exposure a student will have to your company comes by way of the job or internship you post with Lundquist Career Services. A well-written and appealing posting, along with information about your company, is important to generate student interest and enthusiasm. Equally important is identifying your target audience (i.e. marketing, accounting, finance majors; students with a concentration in sports business or supply chain management).

Prior to posting your position, you may contact Bill Sherman, Assistant Director for Employer Relations, for input or feedback.
