LinkedIn
The FGCU Career Development Services LinkedIn page is a great way to interact with current students, alumni and staff. Employers can post company highlights and job / internship opportunities and engage with the community. We encourage our current and former students to follow the page and begin following and building relationships with employers.
Recruitment Wednesdays
An opportunity for students and employers to connect on a weekly basis begins September 6th. Recruitment Wednesday allows you to educate students about your organization in person on campus with representatives from your company. The opportunity is a 2-hour tabling event and is offered over lunchtime in the Cohen Center Student Union. It is a great way to build your brand on campus and engage with students as they pass by in a high traffic area. We host three employers a week, and you are invited to attend one time per semester.
