[MBA-FT-Students] Clemson MBA Networking Forum

[Jamie Patterson]

Dear Students,

We are very excited for our 4th Annual Clemson MBA Networking Forum on Thursday, January 19 starting at 9am.  The companies that will be in attendance are listed below.  Please rank the top 5 companies that you would like face time with and send me your list by midnight on Sunday, January 15.  I will be setting up 10 minute networking interviews with the companies that you choose.  You will be receiving your individual agenda for the day by Wednesday, January 18.

Company List:

ScanSource
Safe Harbor
Hubbell Lighting
Fluor
Phillips Staffing and Recruitment
B2B Media
SCBT
Covidien HealthCare
Evergreen Recycling
Northwestern Mutual
Hartness International
Canal Insurance
Heritage Healthcare
Michelin
BMW
TTI
Chicago Pneumatic
Grainger
First Quality
Curtis Wright


Please keep in mind a few best practices for the day:


1.       Professional Dress is Required

2.       Bring multiple copies of your resume (At least 10)

3.       Research the companies before your meetings

4.       Know what you are looking for in terms of job opportunities

5.       Be sure to get a business card from each employer so you can send a follow up and a thank you note

6.       Be yourself and have fun!

Many of our students have made great connections at our Networking Forum in the past, and this is going to be another great year.  Please know that this is not your typical career fair.  Here, you will be getting the important individual face time with each employer to make the connections that are vital to landing full time opportunities.  You should still plan on going to the big Career Fair on the Clemson campus on January 24th and 25th.  Both the Networking Forum and Career Fair will be extremely beneficial to expanding your network, meeting with a large number of organizations, and learning about great employment opportunities.

I look forward to getting your company preferences.

Have a great day!
