Career Fair and Company Talks

So this last week was Career fair at RIT. As per normal, every dresses to the 7's and prints off their resumes and business cards in the hopes they will stand out from everyone else doing the exact same thing. On the converse, the recruiters have set up shop trying to present themselves to be the best white collar pencil pushing station for the aspiring students. A big game of cat and mouse really. On a side note, I'm not sure why we still are required to have class on either day, it just makes things stressful for everyone trying to make time for everything or skipping out on class.

The other festivities of course include some of companies giving talks to about their companies to people to raise interest and awareness of what they do. Of particular note is the company Hudl which not only presented a talk in the GCCIS building as well as our HFOSS class. I much prefer things like these as it switches the focus from both sides trying to peddle themselves off. The talk itself was rather interesting, I hadn't actually heard of the company before. All in all, I more enjoyed listening to people giving advice about the career fair.
