Professional Development Week & Career Fair

Save the Dates! October 22-26, 2012
Each fall, the Thunderbird Career Management Center (CMC) hosts a week of career-related activities for students and recruiters. This is your ideal opportunity to recruit candidates with a global mindset and experience, grounded in a solid international business education. Meet professionals who can add real value to your organization at Thunderbird's Professional Development Week and Career Fair.

Feel free to contact our Employer Relations Manager at 602-978-7245 to schedule a visit!

Consolidate your recruiting into one visit.
During Professional Development Week, there are no classes, exams or projects scheduled, so students are far more available to you, even more job-focused and ready to explore potential career opportunities. Hold a company presentation Wednesday, attend the career fair Thursday, and conduct your interviews on Friday.

Brand your organization during Professional Development Week.
In addition to attending the Career Fair, consider participating in or sponsoring one of the many professional development workshops attended by students during Professional Development Week. For more information, visit the Professional Development Week Branding page, contact your account manager or e-mail employer.relations@thunderbird.edu.
