Start connecting with employers who want Central Piedmont students and alumni by attending an Employer Meet & Greet! 

Employer Meet & Greets are open to all students (unless otherwise noted in event description). Even if you aren't ready to apply for a job, attending an Employer Meet & Greet is a prime opportunity to network with employers and learn more about the career field directly from the source.

Tips for Connecting with Employers

• Learn About the Employers - Research the companies you’re interested in meeting. Check them out on Handshake, review their websites, and pay attention to their mission statements and any recent news.  
• Polish Your Resume - Tailor your resume by highlighting skills and keywords from internship or job descriptions. Print multiple copies to bring with you to the event. 
• Practice Your Introduction - Prepare a brief elevator pitch to introduce yourself, showcase your skills and experiences, and express your interest in the company and its opportunities. 
• Dress to Impress - Make a great first impression! Need professional clothes? Visit the Professional Clothing Closet for free business attire.
