Guidebook Information

We provide a professionally printed "Career Fair Guidebook" that is distributed to over 3,000 job-seeking students/alumni, and is available on our website prior to and following the career fair. The Guidebook provides a brief description of your company, free with your registration. Prime advertising opportunities in this guidebook are also available for an additional fee.

Make sure the "top talent" you come to recruit has your company in the forefront of their minds and their future career considerations by advertising in our far reaching guidebook. It's an easy way to increase awareness and the size of your footprint at Michigan Tech. Your advertisement shows students how much you're interested in them, in turn, peaking their interest in you. Start the buzz about your company - get people talking about you - be the company with the longest line at the Career Fair.

Companies advertising in the Fall Career Fair 2009 Guidebook should send digital artwork to gmgoudge@mtu.edu by Friday, September 4, 2009. 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 acceptable. 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 Services Partners. For more information on the program, please see our Partners webpage or contact Jim Turnquist or Tina Giachino.
