Career Fairs @iSchool

After iSchool, what? Being well into the second half of the first semester, it was a good time to start thinking about it - full time positions for second years and summer internship positions for the first year students. Apart from the career fairs that happen at Berkeley level, iSchool organizes fairs and information sessions targeted specifically for iSchool grads.
This fall, it started with an information session by the Accenture Technology Labs last month. There was another one by Google organized on 30^th October where three cool folks from Google took us through the product lifecycle of the Google Checkout product.
On 7^th November we had our iSchool Career fair. About fifteen companies participated looking to recruit in a range of expertise including the user experience domain, information architecture and the product management area. It was nice to see so many iSchool and Berkeley alumni coming back to get more of their kind into their companies. Ranging from large corporations to startups, the diversity that we are especially known for, was prevalent even at the fair! Companies like Microsoft, Adaptive Path, Salesforce, Wells Fargo, Zazzle, Sapient, TIBCO and many others took the stage.
Thanks to Shirley and Meg for an excellent organization. Looking forward to having another one over in the Spring semester!
