Recruiter Pitch Day
We all know the frustration of looking at job boards for “entry level” jobs and finding positions that require 5+ years of experience. Recruiter Pitch Day is where you can learn about internships and actual entry-level roles from recruiters who are looking for talented individuals. This is a great opportunity to directly connect with hiring team members!
