Employer Information Sessions

Some employers choose to schedule information sessions, typically the evening prior to an interview day, in order to meet less formally with students and share general information about your organization so that interview time can be spent more effectively. If you would like advice about whether, when, and where to hold an information session, please contact our recruiting staff.

To arrange an information session in Career Services, contact:

• Ms. Betsy McCoy
  Recruiting Services Manager
  (540) 231-6776
  betsy.mccoy@vt.edu

To arrange an information session elsewhere on campus, contact:

• The UUSA Event Planning Office:
  Ms. Amanda Bury
  Event Planner
  (540) 231-4170
  abury@vt.edu
• The Event Planning Office will notify Career Services of your arrangements, so your session can be publicized online through Hokies4Hire.

Off campus information sessions

• If you arrange an information session off campus in connection with your hotel accommodations, please notify Career Services' recruiting staff (also on right sidebar) so that we can publicize your session on-line through Hokies4Hire.

To verify facts about your information session

• If you scheduled an information session in connection with On-Campus Interviewing, you may verify your information as follows:
  Log in to Hokies4Hire and select "Career Events" from the main menu, then "Career Events List."

Publicity to students

• Employer information sessions are publicized to students on-line through Hokies4Hire
• Career Services strongly encourages students to attend employer information sessions. We are unable to compel students to attend. We ask employers to be aware that students sometimes have schedule conflicts that prevent them from attending all sessions in which they have an interest.

Alcohol Policy

• Regarding refreshments offered to students attending information sessions, Career Services endorses the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Principles for Professional Conduct which state that "Serving alcohol should not be part of the recruitment process." We ask you to voluntarily abide by the NACE Principles.
