Careers
More than 300 regional, national, and international recruiters visit McIntire each year in search of exceptional employees. The Commerce Career Services (CCS) staff provides all of the support necessary to ensure that students, alumni, and employers find the perfect match.
One-on-one counseling, career search advising, workshops, employer-specific programs, and even personal introductions to recruiters are provided with the highest level of service and care. CCS hosts coffee hours weekly during the recruiting season for students to informally meet with recruiters and learn more about career opportunities within their organizations. Commerce Career Day, held each fall, provides an opportunity to speak with representatives from more than 100 organizations seeking to hire McIntire graduates.
In addition, McIntire’s centers, student organizations, and Corporate Partner Program host a full calendar of events that offer students the chance to meet with business leaders from a wide variety of industries and functional areas of expertise. In short, students have almost daily opportunities to network with business leaders and potential employers.
"The opportunity to recruit students who have a strong liberal arts background supplemented by a highly selective, one-year business education from the University of Virginia’s McIntire School of Commerce is of tremendous value to us. McIntire has provided an excellent resource for hiring strategic thinkers who have made an immediate impact on our business. Given our past experience and McIntire’s national reputation for producing outstanding business leaders, we look forward to hiring graduates of the program who can eventually lead our efforts around the world."
