Company Information Sessions
Employers interested in increasing their visibility to students are welcome to host a company information session for our students. This session allows employers to connect with our students, inform them of your opportunities, and start to build a professional network with our students.
Fall 2024 on-campus recruiting is starting soon. If you would like to get your company and its opportunities in front of our student population, please consider presenting an information session. Students benefit by meeting you and discussing their strengths and skills on their resume. Whether you meet face-to-face or virtually, consider this option as a way to connect with students before your interview at UT.
How to request space to host your Jackson School Company Information Session:
Jackson School of Geosciences Career Services collaborates with the Career Success Office for space to host sessions in the fall. Our new system will allow you far more flexibility with dates around the career fair and access to their spacious meeting rooms.
