In recent years, the CADC has been proud to boast the second highest placement rate of any college at Auburn University our dedicated career services specialists support our students career prep needs as well as industry involvement, alongside college leadership and our world class faculty the building.
I really enjoy meeting with our students one on one, because it helps me get to know them as individuals, and this is really important, because it helps me to tailor my recommendations to them, whether it be resumes or cover letters or even interviewing practice or even meeting that particular employer that they're interested in. The CADC career team creates both informal and formal opportunities for students to engage with current industry partners. Informal opportunities include meet and greet and lunch and learns, while formal opportunities include career fairs. The career fair is the most exciting day of the year. I love walking through and seeing our students engaging with our companies that have come to hire these students. They are excited. They bring such energy, and they let our students know how much they mean to them in the industry, our students can walk in there, talk to three or four companies, and literally walk away with an internship for the summer. It's theirs for the taking.
The CADC career specialists bring these partners to campus so our students can build relationships with various companies, enhance their networking skills and confidence with industry. I really enjoy working with my career specialist. She's not intimidating whatsoever. There's like no reason not to ask her for help, and even when she rips apart your resume and like reworks it, I really enjoy working with my career specialists.
