Marketing club holds fair By Daniele DelBuono News Staff More than 200 Northeastern students slated to go on co-op in the summer and fall filled the Curry Student Center Ballroom last week, in order to present questions to representatives from 21 companies. You get a better feel to find out who the employers are and what positions are available, said Heather Orlowski, a Marketing Association member.
Students get to know students on an informal basis.
Being able to integrate the job description and a conversation with an employer, it gives you a better understanding of what the company has to offer. We had a broad base of students majoring in communications, marketing and accounting. Kevin O Malley, president of the NU club, said the marketing association worked closely with the department of cooperative education to put the fair together. The Marketing Association felt that organizing a job fair would be a great opportunity for students to find out more about the jobs, talk to the people who are interviewing and to show the employer groups that Northeastern still has a strong co-op program, O Malley said. O Malley said he was overjoyed to see such a large number of students at the fair.
