A special holiday note to you Freeman School MBA candidates…

The Association for Corporate Growth’s Louisiana chapter has very graciously offered to sponsor two Freeman MBA students each month for their monthly networking luncheon! How very kind, and what a fantastic opportunity.

We will notify all of you about the speaker and program for each month’s networking luncheon. The two free spots will be available on a first-come, first served basis to the first two responders. Further details will be available early in the semester on the notification and selection process.

Stay tuned to your e-mail for more information!

Join me in thanking our partners at ACG Louisiana for the opportunity. The events will provide the monthly winners with a unique opportunity to meet and greet Louisiana business leaders.

Happy and safe holidays to all of you from the CMC staff.

Your future job knows when you are sleeping. It knows when you’re awake. It knows if you’ve been bad or good. So be good, for goodness sake, and stay on top of your career search over the holiday break!

In the wise words of my colleague in recruiting relations, Mindy Trittipo: “The world does not stop just because you are on holiday vacation!” As soon as you get back to campus for the start of the spring semester, recruitng activities will already be buzzing and deadlines will be fast approaching! So be sure to stay tuned in to Freeman Link and ahead of deadlines BEFORE you get back to campus!

Here is a sneak preview of the hot companies coming on campus to recruit in the fall:

- Goldman Sachs

-JP Morgan Chase

-The Central Intelligence Agency

- Citi

- Education Pioneers

- Grant Thornton

- KPMG

- PWC

- E&Y

- Deloitte

And here are a few very important friendly reminders for you to ponder during the holiday break:

*Check in on Freeman Link throughout the holidays for hot job/internship opportunities

*Upload all documents for approval AT LEAST 48 HOURS PIOR to the application deadline in order to be eligible to apply and to ensure that your documents will be approved in time for the deadline

*Make sure that you and all your loved ones have a very safe and merry holiday season, and a happy New Year! 

Warm holiday wishes to all of you from me, Kara Schonberg, and the entire staff of the Freeman School CMC!
