16. Networking Events
Connect students with the best and
brightest alumni from your
university, or get to know students in
a more informal setting. Students can
find internships, jobs, introductions
and mentorship opportunities.
Virtual Career Fairs*
Large scale or boutique virtual career
fairs can connect students in real-time
with employers. A great compliment
to your existing in-person career fair
engagement.
Resume Review
Staff your event with career center
employees, alumni, student
volunteers and outside experts.
When students connect with an
expert they will have 5 to 15 minutes
to ask questions and have their
resume critiqued in real-time.
Development
Invite your alumni to chat with staff,
students, other alumni and your
development team from the comfort
of their office or home. After the
event, follow up via phone or email.
Post Webinar Chat
Send students to a post-webinar chat
where they can connect with the
webinar presenter and other
attendees to discuss and debate the
topic of the day.
Virtual Meetups
Compliment your in-person meet-ups
across the country with virtual
meetups that allow alumni from
coast-to-coast, and even worldwide,
to chat in real-time.
Cross-Major Collaboration
Facilitate exciting new projects
through cross-major collaboration.
For example create new businesses
by matching students in engineering
with students in the business school.
Career Coaching
Staff your event with professional
career coaches or accomplished
alumni to answer student questions,
and coach them on best practices in
applying for jobs and interviewing.
Employer Information Session
Students can connect directly with
employers at custom open house
events that showcase the breadth of a
company’s career opportunities.
FLEXIBLE AND ALL-
ENCOMPASSING.
