By Celestina Roddy

Rome, April 6 – It was that time of year again at John Cabot University when companies from all over come in to present what they are about and to inform prospective employees what they look for when recruiting. 

Career Week occurs twice a year, in April and November,  helping students and alumni determine a career path.

Some of the companies in attendance this semester were: The United States Embassy, International Development Law Organization, Burson Marsteller, World Food Program, Cegos Search, Resintex, Orion and Sarel. 

Mark Your Calendar: March 31-April 4 Is Career Week

John Cabot University is hosting a career week and fair from March 31 to April 4. The event is open to alumni, degree-seeking and visiting students. Throughout the week, officials from a variety of companies will be on campus to discuss the employment market, and provide helpful tips.

“This year the week will focus on how to look for a job/internship through companies belonging to the international recruiting industry,” says Laura Delli Ficorelli, the Career Services Coordinator who has been organizing the fair. 

The career week, with its fair and workshops , is a bridge between the academic world and the outside job market as for many students it is the first professional contact they get with companies and institutions.
