The Career Management Center (CMC) Corner

The BBA-CMC took significant steps throughout the summer and recruitment season to establish and maintain key employer relationships and will continue to focus our efforts on career preparation and employer relationship building. In the midst of one of the most difficult summer internship seasons on record, our BBAs proved to be resilient, facing the adversity and obtaining meaningful experiences. Employers continuously express how Goizueta Business School BBAs make an important impact and contribution to their organizations.

Creating Connections:

Pathways to Opportunities: Parents helping BBAs create connections

Although employment signs are better, the job market remains competitive. Creating connections continues to be a major focus for BBA-CMC providing networking resources and increasing employer engagement activities. Additionally, Goizueta parents have been crucial factors in helping our students establish their network foundations. We appreciate the dedication of parents in creating connections for our future business leaders. As parents, if you have internship and job opportunities within your company, we welcome the opportunity to promote your positions to our BBA students.
