Guidebook Information

This year, we are again providing a professionally printed "Job Fair Guidebook" which is distributed to over 3000 job-seeking students and is available online prior to and following the fair. The guidebook provides a brief description of each participating company, free with your registration. Prime advertising opportunities in this guidebook are also available for an additional fee. The Winter Job Fair '07 Guidebook had over 24,000 page requests during the first week it was available.

Companies advertising in the Career Day 2008 guidebook should send digital artwork to gmgoudge@mtu.edu by Friday, September 19, 2008. All pictures will be printed in black and white along with the rest of the Guidebook. TIF files are the preferred format. Adobe Acrobat PDF format is also acceptible. All files should be 300dpi. Email for questions about other digital formats.

Please note: The company logos that appear in the guidebook are reserved for Career Center Partners. For more information on the program, please see our Partners webpage or contact Jim Turnquist or Tina Giachino.
