Learn to speed-network with companies such as Cintas, Conagra Brands, Dillard's IT, General Mills, HP Engineering, Leggett & Platt, Mastercard, MurphyUSA, Procter & Gamble and Walmart Corporate (just to name a few), who are seeking to connect with diverse students!
Each participant will be given a passport to speak with at least six different company representatives, speed-networking style. This means you get to engage with several companies in a short amount of time. Each student is encouraged to collect at least six stamps in their passport by the end of the event. Those who do so can then be entered in a drawing to win door prizes that will be given away at the end of the event.
