On-Campus Events

Brand your organization on campus, engage with the Brandeis community, and connect with students through Hiatt's career fairs and industry specific career forums. The forums provide direct exposure and engagement with target faculty and students in a way general career fairs cannot. In addition to marketing your organization, Hiatt’s forums allow you to foster deeper connections on-campus and engage future interns and full-time hires sooner in their academic careers.

For more information about which forums or fairs are a good fit for your organization or to discuss other ways to recruit at Brandeis, contact Caroline O'Shea, Assistant Director of Employer Relations, at (781) 736-3621.
