The Center for Career & Leadership Development (CCLD) is looking for faculty who want to include the Fall All Industry Job & Internship Fair scheduled for October 18 in their courses. This opportunity will also include a professional photographer sponsored by the MGA Foundation and Alumni Relations for students and alumni to have a professional photo taken for their LinkedIn profiles and other online professional accounts. This event focuses on job and internship opportunities that are a good fit for students and alumni interested in business, accounting, marketing, human resources, IT, communications, humanities/liberal arts, social work and counseling entry-level/non-master’s level roles, biology, math, government, law enforcement, healthcare administration, healthcare, non-profit work, and more.
