Companies looking for West Texas A&M University student employees can recruit them on campus at an upcoming event.
WT’s Back to School Job Fair will run 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Aug. 25 on the Charles K. and Barbara Kerr Vaughan Pedestrian Mall in the center of the Canyon campus.
Registration deadline for companies is 5 p.m. Aug. 15. There is no cost, but registration is required at bit.ly/wtbacktoschool22
During the come-and-go job fair as the 2022-23 school year begins, students will look for part-time employment opportunities both on- and off-campus.
“Connecting students with these employers from their early college years will promote greater connections within the community and, ultimately, a better network for our students as they enter the job market,” said Sam Green, assistant director for the Office of Career and Professional Development.
A full list of companies will be available to students via their Handshake account at https://bit.ly/backtoschoolwt
Meeting regional needs is a key component of the University’s long-term plan, WT 125: From the Panhandle to the World.
That plan is fueled by the historic, $125 million One West comprehensive fundraising campaign. To date, the five-year campaign — which publicly launched Sept. 23 — has raised about $110 million.
