Employers

Our office partners with employers to help businesses and organizations find the skilled and motivated students they need for internships and permanent hires. If you’re interested in recruiting at Vermont Tech, we’d love to work with you.

Career Fair & On-Campus Recruiting

Our recruiting season begins in March with our annual Spring Career Fair. This event, staged as a trade show, brings employers together with students to discuss their companies, products and career opportunities. It’s a chance for employers and students to network and explore possibilities with each other. The Career Fair gives students and employers a chance to begin relationships before graduation. Interested in staffing a table for your business at next year’s fair? Contact Karry Booska for more information.

During the spring semester, we take this a step further with On-Campus Recruiting. Choose a day that works for you–we’ll advertise, collect student resumes, organize the interview schedule, and host the interview day event. We can also invite employers to join our faculty for lunch and tour the college while they are here.
