Alums return to campus to fill jobs at iExpo
The McCarthy Building Companies is one of 43 businesses looking to fill internships and full-time jobs at the 34th iExpo.
More than 625 students took part in the annual iExpo at the University of Arizona on Feb. 5. The Engineering Student Council runs the event that encourages networking between students and industry partners.
Now in its 34th year, iExpo brought 43 companies to the U of A campus, including giants like Raytheon and Caterpillar Inc.
The event is widely known as the starting point for many careers. Industry leaders, some with alumni at the helm, have recruited at the event for years.
“We're looking for great student talent, and we know we can find it here,” said Marla Peterson, a senior technical manager at Honeywell Aerospace and a systems and industrial engineering alumna.
