arizona's annual career mixer: keeping the best university talent local
If you are inclined to stay in Arizona to begin your career, this event should be on your MUST DO list for May 28th. UA Career Services sponsors a statewide Career Mixer, and we invite Lumberjacks, Sun Devils and Wildcats (especially Wildcats!) to gather for this one-of-a-kind career networking opportunity under one roof.
Be there and bring your friends (even if they cheer for teams to the north of us) Wednesday, May 28h, from 4:30pm – 7:30pm in Scottsdale. Tailored to upper division students and the alumni of Arizona’s three state institutions, we invite you to polish up your resume and head to SkySong, The ASU Scottsdale Innovation Center; 1475 N. Scottsdale Rd.; Scottsdale, AZ.
Whether just starting your job search, or finishing your degree and looking for that next dream job, employers have career opportunities NOW and want to meet YOU. Our express goal is to help talented students meet excellent companies committed to keeping you in our beautiful state. This statewide event focuses on connecting companies with immediate hiring requirements and students who, in the rush of finalizing graduation requirements, may not have had the time to search for a job while still in school.
We recognize that today’s job seekers place a strong emphasis on culture and value fit when considering potential employers. The format of Arizona’s Career Mixer will promote meaningful conversation between job seekers and potential employers. Companies like Dun and Bradstreet, Expeditors International, Garmin International, GlobalTranz, Professional Specialty Publications and ZocDoc, have incredible opportunities for students interested in staying in Arizona and they will all be there.
