When looking for jobs and internships, make sure the employer meets your needs! For example, do you prioritize compensation over location? Or perhaps you would prefer a strong company culture over company brand recognition? Maybe you want to work at a company that is giving back to communities that matter to you. Evaluating various aspects of a company will not only help you land the job, but also help you begin a fulfilling career at a workplace you enjoy.
Come learn ways to identify your desired values in a workplace and develop meaningful questions to ask recruiters at the Fall Engineering and Technology Career Fair.
Lunch will be provided!
