The Student-Athlete Career Mixer is an interactive, information sharing event. It is a chance for our student-athletes to gain knowledge of companies, interact with alumni, network with professionals, and get the “insider” information lacking in the traditional career fair model. In addition to serving as a networking opportunity between student-athlete and professionals, the mixer is designed to provide an open and conversational exchange of information.
The Student-Athlete Career Mixer is held early in the Fall semester. We hand select 25-30 companies from various fields in various disciplines. The Mixer offers the chance for our student-athletes to obtain an array of career opportunities including job shadowing, informational meetings, internships and full-time positions. The Mixer serves as a source for discussion, connection, and interview/initial screening of potential candidates.
