Now is the time to seriously consider employment options. While not all of the employers present will have immediate openings, they are excellent resources to learn about other types of opportunities or future openings. If you have attended Career Day throughout your academic career, you may already know some of the employer representatives and will be able to greet them as friends or as your future employer. If you don't feel there is are any businesses or organizations in which you are interested, remember that employers are great networking resources If they do not have something available, they may know a colleague who does.
