Career Center

Conduct Information Sessions

Please see this visitor information for the safety of our students and community.

Purpose

An Information Session provides you with an opportunity to promote awareness and build excitement about your organization. Many companies use this time to preview their organization using videos, presentations, web pages and/or question and answer sessions, to reduce the amount of time spent profiling their organization in an interview. Information Sessions may be held the evening before your on-campus interviews or scheduled another time of the school year to enhance your brand recognition among students.

 

Facilities/Location

Online

Employers are able to facilitate an online information session with their own technology or may reach out to the K-State Career Center for assistance. Please post your events on Handshake so students can see and RSVP. More information about posting events on Handshake can be found here.
