Recruiting Engineering Technology Students
Featured Employers Series
Central Piedmont’s Engineering Technologies Division hosts employer visits through its annual Featured Employer Series. Local and regional companies are invited to engage and connect with our talented student population via a lunch and learn, class visit, or information table. Hosting a Featured Employer Series session allows you to reach a broader group of candidates during specific days, times, or in front of targeted student populations. You can also participate in our Featured Employer Showcase.
These events have become very popular with both students, employers, and faculty as an avenue to learn which specific skills and competencies students need for in-demand technical fields. These are not typical recruiting sessions — you are expected to discuss not only open positions, but also company culture, educational requirements, and what a typical day on the job at your company might look like.
Our first annual Featured Employer Showcase has been postponed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
We provide a table and demonstration space (if needed), giving you the chance to engage with all students at their leisure. This serves as more of the typical recruiting event, however we do ask that you address company culture, advancement opportunities and required skills needed for success in your organization.
