There are many opportunities for developing a presence on campus. A strong campus presence enables your recruiting efforts be more successful by raising student awareness of your firm's opportunity and culture. Your time on campus also helps you identify potential candidates and assists everyone in determining "fit" with your organization.
Student Clubs at Terry are actively engaged in hosting programs designed to connect students from Terry with the business community. Most club activities take place in Athens and in the Terry Executive Education Facility in Buckhead. Club activities designed to assist employers with developing a presence on campus include: company tours, panel presentations, alumni receptions, and seminars. Club contacts for 2007 - 2008 include:

Companies hold information sessions to provide Terry MBA students with a thorough understanding of the company and career opportunities. Most companies hold the information session three or four weeks prior to conducting on-campus interviews so they can meet students who are highly interested in their company. The information sessions are generally held Monday through Thursday evenings, lasting 45 minutes to an hour. While usually held on campus, some companies prefer to meet with students off-campus, at a local hotel or restaurant. Companies interested in hiring for summer internships often hold information sessions in the spring targeted towards first-year MBAs.
We have a suite of interview rooms available for interviewing MBA students on campus. Our office will work with you to collect resumes for preselect schedules or we can help you with open interview schedules.
Recruiters and alumni conduct simulated interviews and provide candid yet constructive feedback to students at the conclusion of each interview. Students appreciate this opportunity to practice their interviewing skills and obtain feedback from individuals who are out in the working world. Companies may schedule a mock interview day that fits their schedule. Hosted by student business clubs.
Companies are invited to host an on-site networking event with their executives for 10 - 40 MBA students. Executives may give a brief presentation and/or take students on an office tour (this works well for those companies that have a product showroom, or company museum on-site). The tours are designed to expose students to various businesses and industries while providing a networking opportunity.
Is your company planning a Habitat Build, participating in Hands on event? As a part of Terry's leadership culture, Terry "Volunteer DAWGS" commit over 1200 combined volunteer hours per semester.
We encourage companies to meet with Terry faculty and volunteer for guest lecturing in their classes. A faculty directory is available at www.terry.uga.edu/directory. Please contact our office for help with scheduling a meeting with faculty.
