Career Spotlights
Employers conduct presentations to highlight a specific career path or opportunity within their organization. Presentations typically take place during our free period on Tuesdays & Thursdays from 11:00 am-1:00 pm.
Open House Participation
Career Services holds an Open House for students at the beginning of each semester as a “Welcome Back” and to promote our events for the semester. Employers send gift cards and/or prizes as a way to gain name recognition for our raffle at this event.
Develop a Strategy with Career Services
Work with the Career Services staff to tailor a recruiting strategy that works for your organization’s needs and priorities. The employers that have two touch points a year with the students will have a much better chance of the student seeking them out upon graduation or for internships.
Partner with Student Groups
Career Services can connect you with professional and academic student run organizations to assist you in recruiting and partnering with a specific student body. For more information about our students groups click here.
Attend Recruiting Events
Employers can attend Corporate Connections Networking Reception, Design Expo, Industry Recruiting Reception: Accounting and Finance, and the Alternative Opportunities Career Fair. For more information click here.
Portfolio Reviews
Employers conduct portfolio presentations and reviews for students in our design majors. The reviews prepare the student by gaining practice presenting their portfolios while giving the employer the opportunity to present their company and preview the students’ talents.
Connect with Faculty
Career Services can connect you with particular faculty members in the disciplines in which you have a recruiting interest. Employers may wish to speak in specific classes or discuss joint projects with faculty.
Company Tours and Alumni Networking/Recruiting Events
Work with the Career Services Center to arrange tours of your facility for specific groups of students. These tours help to expose students to your organization. Additionally if you have a large number of alumni we can work with you to arrange an alumni/recruiting event during the school year. This event that has been successfully done brings together current students and alumni at an organization. A company could pre-select the students to invite to the event and employees could network with the students to find out more about their educational background and goals.
Podcasts and Success Stories
Employer Podcasts, which take about 15 minutes to record over the phone, highlight your organization and also could highlight a particular career path. For example, on 2 separate podcasts, one of your managers could discuss what their average day is like while the recruiting manager could discuss the culture of the organization. Our podcasts are a great way to reach the Millennium Generation and establish a presence on campus. Also they are a great way to share information about your company before the interview. Podcasts are uploaded on the Career Services website and students can listen to them or download them onto their IPOD. We already have a script of questions. http://www.philau.edu/career/students/Podcasts.htm
