The Employer Panel is first CSE recruiting prep event of the year! The purpose is to inform you about the recruiting process from the employers’ perspective.
- When: Wednesday Oct. 7, 5:45-6:45 pm
- Where: EE 125
- RSVP: https://catalysttools.washington.edu/webq/survey/cseadv/85023
The panel consists of four industry representatives: one recent grad/engineer, one HR representative from a large company, one HR rep from a small company, and one hiring manager.
This year’s panelists:
- Hiring Manager: Tam Armstrong, Sony Media
- Recent CSE Grad: Brian Ma, Eggsprout
- Large Co. HR: Ben Mercer, Microsoft
- Small Co. HR: Joni Kimzey, Tableau Software
Moderator: Dave Rispoli, CSE Professional Master’s Program Advisor
Brian Ma will discuss his own job search after graduating from CSE. Tam Armstrong, another CSE alum, will discuss what his company looks for in employees. Ben Mercer and Joni Kimzey will discuss how recruiting works within their large and small companies.
The panel is meant to be general — the represented companies may certainly provide some level of self-promotion, their focus will be on providing a peek inside the recruiting process so the students will know how to best prepare. We encourage you to attend even if you’re not considering employment at these specific companies!
Our moderator, Dave Rispoli, is the PMP adviser. He’ll be helping out with other ugrad career events.
