Owen’s Career Management Center provides a variety of media and methods to advertise and promote your company’s visits and events.
Standard Promotion for Recruiters
- Promotion in the Owen Daily News, closed-circuit TV announcements, and promotion on our intranet CMC site.
- “Mail slot” drops for direct-to-student promotions. Direct, personalized email communications with students you’ve met.
- Extensive company information on file in the career section of the world-class Walker Management Library.
- Participation in a career panel. You can speak to a class or designate an Owen alumnus or alumna from your company to do it for you. We’ll make sure students across campus are aware of the opportunity.
Note: Our building has limited space for displaying corporate materials; as a rule, we do not post flyers or posters to publicize corporate events.
