Startup Internship Meet and Greet
November 10, 2021 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm
Not your typical college career fair, this session is open to startups located in the piedmont area of North Carolina – and all UNC-Chapel Hill and Central Carolina Community College students. Startup founders will be given the opportunity to pitch their company, their open positions and why you should work for them.
As a student, you’ll have the chance to talk directly with startups that are looking to meet students who have innovative minds, a passion for problem solving, computer science and other technical skills, and an entrepreneurial spirit. If you’re searching for an internship, a potential job or opportunities to simply learn what entrepreneurship is all about, this session is a chance to jumpstart your professional journey. This event is casual and informal.
