Networking Nights- Accounting

Networking Nights are back at Utica College.

The first round begins for UC students who are interesting in pursuing a career in the accounting field. Accounting Networking Night will be held Monday, Oct. 5 in the Carbone Auditorium in the Economic Crime and Justice Studies building on main campus. Networking Nights are hosted by the Office of Career Services.

Students will be put into small groups and all get the opportunity to meet with a handful of employers who will share their expertise on their careers. Light refreshments will be offered. The employers will give the students more insight about the companies being represented.

Students will learn about what careers their majors could potentially lead them to. The employers will share any job or internship opportunities their companies offer. Also, the employers will fill the students in on what qualifications the job requires of them.

Future networking nights will be hosted throughout the month of October for those studying Biology and Chemistry, Management, Non-Clinical Health, and Communication Arts, Public Relations, and Journalism.

Feel free to contact the director of Career Services Halina Lotyczewski at halotycz@utica.edu. You can also visit the Office of Career Services in the Strebel Student Center in room 206 to reserve a spot at one of the networking nights. You can also email the Office of Career Services at careerservices@utica.edu

My name’s Lia Tobin. I’m a senior at Utica College, studying journalism with a concentration in broadcast. This is my second year being the copy editor for my school’s newspaper The Tangerine. I am from Fairport, New York, which is a couple hours away from my college. After graduating from Utica College, I’d love to land a job as a TV reporter or as a fashion editor for a high-end magazine such as Marie Claire, Elle, or Vogue. I’d be happy with either job. I’ll be covering this site’s Events page.
