I found the career fair last week to be an excellent value of time and one of the best hiring events that I’ve experienced in terms of connecting with the right candidates. I appreciated the fact that it was a concentrated two-hour period focused towards the business faculty students or those with an interest in business – exactly the type of applicants that we were looking for!

In February, the Career Studio provided incredible support to the Faculty of Management Marketing Department in hosting an Alumni Panel of marketing professionals. Jonah Ferguson (Career Studio) arranged a panel of accomplished Marketing graduates from VIU, who spoke to an audience of 50 VIU students who were keen to learn about a career in marketing. There is tremendous value for students in connecting with the business community beyond the classroom, and this event exemplified an opportunity for our students to create industry connections. Our Marketing Department is incredibly grateful for the support of the Career Studio in organizing all aspects of this event, as it was a fantastic success
