Chevron Dinner, Google Events, and Resume Books

Posted September 19th, 2012 by Cassie Schwendiman

Chevron Dinner

We are also having a dinner with Chevron on Monday, September 24th at 6:30 at Austin's Pizza on the Drag. This event will be after the Career Fair, so it will be a great time to relax and meet up with Chevron in a less intense atmosphere. I would really love as many people to come as possible! As Liz said, we take RSVP very seriously, so if you say you are coming, please come!

For those of you who have already submitted their resumes to be in the Resume Book, thank you! For anyone who has not submitted their resume and would still like to, I am going to be taking resumes until 11:59 PM on Sunday, September 23rd (right before the Career Fair!), so please get those to me!

Over the next week and a half, WiCS will have quite a few great opportunities to hang out with companies and talk to recruiters. This post will provide you with details about THREE different company lunches, so make sure to keep reading.

Please note that there are three separate RSVP forms. WiCS takes RSVPs seriously, so make sure to only RSVP if you actually plan on attending the event. If you RSVP and find yourself unable to attend, send me an e-mail to let me know.

Google is hosting a networking lunch with WiCS on Tuesday the 25th from 11:30 to 1:00 in the Student Activity Center (SAC) 1.106. Since many of you have classes during some of this time, feel free to come and go as you need. Google will be handing out swag, discussing their many internship and new-hire programs, and talking about their cutting-edge development. Since they will be doing other information sessions and events on campus over the next few weeks, this will be a women's only lunch.

Microsoft

Want to see what Microsoft has been up to? What you could be a part of? Come eat lunch on us and learn all about the exciting things happening.

Microsoft will be hosting a "Lunch and Learn" with WiCS on Wednesday the 26th from noon to 1:00 in Painter Pi (PAI 3.14). You can enjoy some delicious food while learning about the technical interviewing process. WiCS chicks who attended this event last year found it extremely helpful in preparing them for future interviews, so I highly recommend it. I also heard a rumor that Microsoft has some pretty awesome swag to hand out.
