WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
Meet employers. Get real tips. Land opportunities. Each semester, the Company Spotlight Series brings 15–20 employers to you (on campus and online) for fast, hands-on sessions about what matters: interview strategies, company culture, internships & jobs, and how to build real connections.
Why students love it
- Actionable advice you can use at any time
- Face time with recruiters (yes, they remember you)
- Lunch is provided with fun peer interaction
By the numbers
- Spring 2025: average 36 students per session
- Fall 2025: 9 in-person + 8 virtual sessions for maximum flexibility
How to join

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT?
Company Spotlights last about one hour. The first half will consist of a company presentation with the remaining portion designated for networking. You will have a chance to get face time with company representatives and ask questions about them and their respective organizations.
The Spotlight series is a great way to get your career started!

Arrive 10 minutes early
Even if the Spotlight is virtual, arrive early. Log in to the session and join the waiting room to make sure you do not have any trouble with the links.
First impressions matter
This is a networking opportunity! Make a great first impression by doing the following:
- Dress professionally
- If virtual, keep your background (whether real or an image) simple and uncluttered
- Turn fans off and/or move anything that could be distracting
- You can download a UNCG-themed background here
- Make sure there is good light on your face, and don’t sit with a bright window behind you
- Raise your webcam so it is level with your face and bring it close
Do your research
Research the organization ahead of time so that you can show your knowledge of the industry and your enthusiasm for the company.
