Evening presentations and receptions provide recruiting firms with opportunities for formal information-sharing and displays. You should allow about 1.5 hours for the presentation and reception, which will include time for questions and answers as well as conversations with individual MBAs. The Mock interview program is designed to determine the student's interview weaknesses and strengths. Volunteers from the corporate community come to AGSM to conduct these interviews and give feedback to the students prior to their interviewing. We arrange for a panel of corporate representatives to discuss their careers and companies in a very informal setting.
Faculty also request guest speakers in careers related to their classes.
Employers may use this as an opportunity to examine potential job candidates without the commitment of an interview schedule. The Distinguished Speaker Series brings to campus key business professionals and leaders who address current business issues, leadership, ethics, and other relevant topics directly related to their individual industry or career field. The clubs meet weekly and often invite executives to give presentations on topics that are of interest to the members. The Advisory Council is the main link between the AGSM at UCR and the business community. Through this linkage, AGSM addresses the needs of the business communityby soliciting input and participation from industry leaders.
