Career Fairs and Events
Fall Career Week & Career Fair
Each fall, the Thunderbird Career Management Center (CMC) hosts a week of career-related activities for students and recruiters. This is your ideal opportunity to recruit candidates with global mindset and experience, grounded in a solid international business education. Meet professionals who can add real value to your organization at Thunderbird's Fall Career Week and Career Fair.
Feel free to contact an Employer Relations Coordinator at 602-978-7245 for assistance with any part of the registration process.
Consolidate your recruiting into one visit.
During Career Week, there are no classes, exams or projects scheduled, so students are far more available to you, even more job-focused and ready to explore potential career opportunities. Hold a company presentation Wednesday, attend the career fair Thursday, and conduct your interviews on Friday.
Brand your organization during Career Week.
In addition to attending the Career Fair, consider participating in or sponsoring one of the many professional development workshops attended by students during Career Week. For more information, visit the Career Week Branding page, contact your account manager or e-mail employer.relations@thunderbird.edu.
