Cross-Campus Collaboration Pays Off at Career Fair

On Sept. 16, more than 300 accounting and finance students met with 45 employers at the Sykes College of Business Meet the Firms Career Fair. 

Teams across the University collaborated to help students prepare for the opportunity through information sessions, résumé reviews and elevator-pitch workshops hosted by the Southard Institute for Sales Excellence, the accounting department and the Beta Alpha Psi honor society. 

“The energy in the room was equal parts nerves and excitement,” said Juliana Kralik, instructor of accounting. “It was an absolute joy to watch students put their preparation into practice.”
