Receptions

Receptions are great opportunities for students to network with company representatives in a relaxed setting (no resumes allowed) before the Career Fair. The Receptions are attended by recruiters from the companies attending the Career Fair the following day. Receptions will take place in the FRB Atrium. Recruiters will chat with students without any booths, enjoying food and refreshments around small tables. Students are free to come and go during the two hours.

Student Testimonial:
"Many students aren't aware of the Receptions held on the nights before the fair, but it was a great way for me connect with recruiters and meet them again the following day at their booths. The Receptions defintely helped me make an impression to get an interview and job offer!"

-Garima Shah Class of 2023

A few additional notes:

Since the intention is to create a more relaxed atmosphere, we do not allow students to bring resumes.
Similar to during the career fair, most recruiters wear company t-shirts or other apparel to identify themselves.
