Could you be a Rising Star? A Rising Star is a junior/senior who exemplifies professionalism, initiative, intellect (especially in their major or discipline) and who is able to communicate effectively! Rising Stars get exclusive access to our corporate sponsors in the pre-event hours of the Job Market. Specifically, Rising Stars will be invited to a pre-event reception in which all corporate sponsors/recruiters will be on hand to talk with them! Students will also have their résumés placed in a pre-event notebook that will be provided to corporate sponsors and allow for more exposure! This is a great way for students to network with potential employers and get valid leads on professional positions! If you are interested in being a Rising Star, you must stop by Career Services and pick up an application and sign up for an interview time.
