Host an Event
Texas McCombs offers employers the opportunity to host virtual or in-person informational events during certain weeks of each academic semester. We are happy to work with you to host a McCombs-exclusive event or to promote an existing event through our recruiting systems.

Types of Events

Your Recruiting Operations Manager can help you coordinate event options specific to your company.

Represent your company brand and present your organization to prospective candidates through an info session or workshop.

These are typically one hour and held on Monday or Wednesday evenings and can be held virtually or on-campus.

Recommended for employers with a strong, existing presence on the UT campus.

Pro Tips:

  • Presentation portion should last no more than 30 minutes, followed by Q&A, networking, or breakout groups.
  • Focus your content on information not easily found online (company culture, interview process, specific roles/career paths).
  • Enhance participant engagement by including a virtual office tour, panel discussion, or other instructive content.
  • In addition to recruiters, students value hearing from alumni and representatives currently in the roles you’re recruiting for.

 

Dedicate time for one-on-one or small group conversations with prospective candidates to allow in-depth discussions regarding recruitment, company culture, and more.

Office Hours: 15-20 minute scheduled time slot, usually 1:1

Coffee Chats: Come and go format, small group conversations

Pro Tips:

  • Beneficial for both new employers looking to build brand awareness and employers seeking engagement opportunities with prospective candidates.
  • Office hours are held in our interview rooms, with the option for multiple employer representatives to host chats simultaneously.
  • MBA students typically prefer the 1:1 format to group conversations.
  • Employers typically provide coffee, snacks, and/or refreshments at coffee chats and bring multiple representatives to create small group ratios.

 

Connect with your Recruting Operations Manager to discuss event scheduling/availability, as well as options for promoting an off-campus or multi-school event.
