Job Fair
The GCM Job Fair is an employer’s best opportunity to connect with determined students seeking summer internships or full-time career positions. Last year we had 80 companies interviewing. It is free to attend, but registration is required.
The Job Fair has time for both structured interviews and open networking. As an employer, you can expect to directly interview approximately 19 students — 11 potential interns and 8 graduating students — and we encourage you to speak with and collect résumés from as many other students as you’d like.
Interns are generally finishing their third year and are looking for full-time work from May to August. They are required to complete at least 420 hours of work before graduation. Internships must be paid, with the salary negotiated between the company and student.
