Career Expos

In an effort to assist employers with their annual recruiting needs, the OBSP coordinates “Mini Career Expos” for all College of Business students, and some major specific events during both Fall and Spring semesters. The events for all majors in the college are scheduled if at all possible, in conjunction with the dates of the campus wide Career Expos sponsored by Career Services in Martin Hall. The events are totally separate in terms of coordination and billing for participation.

These events are usually one day events with the event starting at 8:30-9:00AM and ending at 2-3PM, with lunch provided. The intent of the events is to facilitate interaction between students and employers related to internship and career position recruiting. Attendance ranges from 200 – 350 students per event. At this time, there are also expo events for Aviation Management and Logistics majors, one each semester. Additionally, OBSP has sponsored specialty events by location “ Columbus, GA Employers Day”, and also by industry “Sports Management Careers Day” as other options to address the various needs of employers.

An employer contact list is maintained, so if you would like to receive invitations to participate, please contact Dr. Jimmy Lawrence at 334-844-2218, or by email at lawrejd@auburn.edu. Fees for each event are usually less than $100.00 for up to 2 representatives.
