VSU Hosts Fall Career Expo
VALDOSTA - The office of Career Services is hosting the annual
Fall Career Expo from 10 a.m.- 2 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 14, in the
University Center’s Magnolia rooms.
VSU alumni and current students have the opportunity to meet
face-to-face with over 30 potential employers and graduate school
representatives. Anyone holding or pursuing a degree at another
institution is invited as well. Individuals are encouraged to dress
professionally, bring many copies of their resumes, and inquire
about the multitude of opportunities available.
Winifred Collins, director of Career Services, said the expo is an
excellent opportunity for VSU students and alumni to meet with
employers and graduate school representatives.
"The expo has always been beneficial in helping students jump start
their job search but in today’s current economic crisis, it is
crucial that students speak with corporate and governmental
recruiters interested in offering employment opportunities," she
said. "Also, representatives from local and regional graduate
schools will be available to discuss their academic programs in
areas such as law, business, counseling, pharmacy, and veterinary
medicine."
