For Brenau students, the Office of Career Services notes more and more employers want college graduates who have good GPA's and have participated in extracurricular activities. In addition, companies tell the university they want students to have some experience in their field of study. Internships are an excellent way to get that experience. The Office of Career Services can assist in developing a powerful, effective and targeted resume and states, "Without this the search for an internship or other position can be extremely frustrating. After you have your resume where you want it, we will discuss how to undertake a search for an internship."
Registration to attend the career fair is not required, but for preregistration email resumes to Sheri.cannon@ags.brenau.edu. Please call campus for directions: 770-446-2900.
