Careers

More than 300 regional, national, and international recruiters visit McIntire each year in search of exceptional employees. The Commerce Career Services (CCS) staff provides all of the support necessary to ensure that students, alumni, and employers find the best match. One-on-one counseling, career search advising, workshops, and employer-specific programs, along with other professional development opportunities, are provided with the highest level of service and care.

CCS hosts employer coffee networking events during the recruiting season for students to informally meet with recruiters and learn more about positions within their organizations. In addition, employers provide students with resume reviews and mock interviews. Commerce Career Day, held each fall, provides a chance to speak with representatives from more than 100 organizations seeking to hire McIntire graduates.

In addition, McIntire’s centers, student organizations, and Corporate Partner Program offer a full calendar of events that bring together students and business leaders from a wide variety of industries and functional areas of expertise. In short, students have almost daily opportunities to network with business leaders and potential employers.

"The opportunity to recruit students who have a strong liberal arts background supplemented by a highly selective, one-year business education from the University of Virginia’s McIntire School of Commerce is of tremendous value to us. McIntire has provided an excellent resource for hiring strategic thinkers who have made an immediate impact on our business. Given our past experience and McIntire’s national reputation for producing outstanding business leaders, we look forward to hiring graduates of the program who can eventually lead our efforts around the world."
