Career Day - January 23, 2015

What is Financial Planning Career Day?

Financial Planning Career Day is an opportunity to bring together financial planning students, professionals, and hiring firms for a day of interviewing, professional development, and networking.

Who might be interested?

Financial Planning Firms/Employers: Firms who are looking to hire for an internship or entry-level position will have an opportunity to interview a number of candidates in one convenient location and all in one day.  The program will also include guidance for firms looking to maximize the value of hiring financial planning students.

Financial Planning Students and Young Professionals:  Students and young professionals benefit from having an opportunity to interview with multiple financial planning firms all in one day.  In addition, Career Day will also provide ample career development and networking opportunities, including mock interviews, resume reviews, and roundtable discussions with financial planners.

Other Financial Planning Professionals:  Career Day will include an educational program and luncheon focused on career development issues related to bringing a new generation into the financial planning profession.

How does Career Day work?

Employers and students need to register to indicate their interest in participating in Career Day.  The Career Development Committee will collect and distribute the student resumes to employers, and interviewing firms will notify the Committee who they would like to interview.  The Committee will then create and distribute an interviewing schedule for the employers and students.

For Employers:  Interviewing firms will need to register by December 19, 2014.  If firms want to publicize their job description(s), they need to submit them (in PDF format) to fpacareerday@sju.edu by December 19, 2014.

For Students and Other Interviewers:  Students and others looking for internships and entry-level positions need to register and submit their resumes (in PDF format; no cover letter needed) to fpacareerday@sju.edu by December 19, 2014.
