Career Fair and Graduate School Reception
On the evening of Saturday, January 16, the Career Fair will open with a reception for the over 300 graduate students and junior and senior undergraduate students expected to attend the 9th Annual AMS Student Conference. This event is an ideal time to promote your organization, distribute literature on job vacancies and graduate school opportunities, and schedule interviews for later in the week. As a participating employer or university, you will be assigned a table in order to display handouts and other information about your organization.
Career Fair – Annual Meeting Week
The Career Fair will continue on Sunday, January 17 through Tuesday, January 19. While Saturday night’s opening reception is open only to participants in the Student Conference, the Career Fair may be visited by any registered Annual Meeting attendee during its regular hours of operation (Sunday 5:00 p.m.-7:00 p.m. and Monday-Tuesday 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.)
If you are interested in reserving a table for the opening night reception or for any day during the week of the Annual Meeting, please complete a reservation form and return it by fax to 617-742-8718 or by email to bfarley@ametsoc.org no later than November 23, 2009. Space is limited so requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Specific information about the Career Fair will be emailed to you after we receive your reservation.
If you are unable to reserve table space or if you can’t attend the Annual Meeting, simply provide us with a copy of your job announcement(s) by 19 December and we’ll post them to our ‘Positions Available’ board. Interested applicants will be encouraged to contact you via our Career Fair message board (for recruiters in attendance at the Annual Meeting) or to forward their resumes to you after the meeting. Please submit job postings as an attached Word document or PDF by email to careerfair@ametsoc.org. Those recruiters who are attending the meeting but cannot meet the deadline may drop off their announcement during the fair's hours of operation.
