Career Fair Figures

The 17th annual MMA Career Fair was held on the traditional third Thursday in October.

New Career Services Director, Joe Curtis ’97 arrived just in time to help the Career Services team—Chuck Easley ’08, Deborah Harman, and Christine Spratt—host the event.

Due to the new continuous lunch service in the Alfond Student Center, we discontinued lunch service in the field house (except for company representatives). This change allowed us to expand the table layout, making navigation through the company tables much easier and less congested, which was well received!

More than 550 students and some returning alumni attended to visit with 68 companies.

Among returning companies were: Cianbro, Crowley, Dunlap, Hannaford, Kiewit, and PepsiCo. We also welcomed some new ones: Arizona Public Service, ISO New England, and Schuyler Line Navigation.

All majors were served by this year’s diverse group of companies.

Many companies interviewed immediately after the fair for summer internships and jobs.
