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 Spring Career Fair 2012 Guidebook should send digital artwork to gmgoudge@mtu.edu by Friday, January 27, 2012. All pictures will be printed in black and white along with the rest of the Guidebook. TIF files are the preferred format, PDF is also acceptable. All files should be 300 dpi.
