Networking Events, Workshops and Panels
Each semester Career Services has Networking Events, Workshops, and Panels
that you can volunteer to be part of. This is a great 'free' way for your organization to keep up its name recognition
on-campus! Inspire students and alumni to follow in your footsteps! Since these are networking type events,
you are asked to bring business cards and be on the lookout for the student who may need to be drawn into a conversation.

At this premier networking event you will be able to view the work of our CU-Boulder students and professionals (most will be

tomorrow’s marketplace. Their skills are broad and deep.
Participants will have the opportunity to include their work in one of the ongoing presentation loops (audio may be suppressed).
You also are asked to bring business cards, and a sample of work to present.
Annual Networking Event
Thursday, March 4, 2010, UMC Aspen Rooms
5:30-7:00 p.m.
The first networking night went so well we have elected to repeat it in the 2010 Spring Semester
and invite 200 students. Students will be asked to pre-register, and will be expected to dress in business
or business casual attire. The event will run much like a Chamber of Commerce "Business After Hours," or a
networking evening at a national conference you may have attended.
Students will be asked to make up business cards, and will be there to LEARN the art of networking. However,
we also want to make this a true networking opportunity. Help our students learn the art of networking by
giving them some pointers at the event. As business professionals, you have had plenty of networking experience,
and know the art of "working a room".
- Needed: 40-45 business representatives to join us for this event (each company can bring up to 4
representatives)
- Dress: Business or Business Casual
- Bring: Plenty of Business Cards
- Available: Non-alcoholic Bloody Mary's, Margaritas, Tonic drinks, etc. and we will have traditional
hors d'oeuvres.
Three Sponsors Needed by November 30th, 2009: As a sponsor for this event your organization's name and
logo will be placed on the student website and it will be used in all promotional materials sent to the students.
Additionally, your organization's logo will appear on a sign at the entrance to the event. Cost: $500.
Contact Michael.Deragisch@colorado.edu or
call 303-492-4123 for more information.

in the job search process. Employers are welcome to present on career-related topics such as resume writing
and interviewing skills, or to help critique student resumes, or be part of a panel presentation.
