Applied Technologies Department Connects Students with Employers at Career Fair
December 2, 2024
On Wednesday, Nov. 26, 麻豆影视’s Applied Technologies Department hosted a fall open house and career fair in the college’s Williams Hall.
Current students attended the event to meet potential employers and had the chance to discuss a variety of full-time job openings and internship opportunities. Several students attended company presentations and some participated in on-site job interviews.
Over 70 regional, national and international companies visited campus for the career fair, including GlobalFoundries, National Grid, Amtrak, Eastern Heating and Cooling, Drive Garvey and Keeler Motor Cars, to name a few.
“We are always thrilled to host events like this one on our campus,’’ said the college’s Officer in Charge Louis Coplin. “Applying for jobs and meeting employers after college can be intimidating, so giving students the opportunity to do so before they even reach graduation can really lift a weight off their shoulders. It’s wonderful to see these students feeling excited about their future careers, and we are very thankful for the companies who took time out of their day to come to campus to provide them with job insights.”
