Career Services encourages all students to pursue an internship during their college career, stating the following benefits:

    • exploring career fields;
    • developing new skills or enhance existing ones;
    • turning classroom learning to practical hands-on applications; and
    • building your resume for applying to graduate schools, internships, and full-time opportunities.

Many employers recruit entry-level hires from their internship pool.

Employers attending the event include over 90 companies ranging from fields in communications to technology to not-for-profit organizations. Noted employers include First Data, Sidearm Sports, Rescue Mission, News Channel 9 and many more.
