Recruiting Tips

Tips for Industry Partners

The Tauber Institute facilitates communication between our highly qualified business and engineering graduates and an array of potential employers. Some of the recruiting and networking opportunities offered to our industry partners are listed below.

Remember to begin networking with students early. Many Tauber Institute students receive an offer from their project sponsor at the end of their team project, and some will accept the offer based on their experience during their internship. A good team project can give students insight into a company and its leadership track.
