Job Shadowing at Harland Clarke

Friday Feb 10 2017

Hope your day is going well.  Wanted to share an opportunity we are currently promoting.  Harland Clarke will be recruiting for junior/senior level accounting and finance students to partake in an externship day being held March 24th.  This is a fantastic way for students to network with key personnel and learn the different operations of the organization first hand.  They are targeting five of our students to participate.  Students will be given an opportunity to meet division management as well as participate in a case study analysis at the conclusion of the day.  The application is currently open on their hr webpage with a id number of 5441.  More details are included in the flyer attached. 

 

We have scheduled an on-campus information session to help promote this.  It will be held on Monday, February 20th from 5:30-6:30 p.m. in CAB 223 for any students wanting to learn more.  If you know of anyone who may be interested, please spread the word.  We want a great showing since their SVP of Talent Management will also be coming in to speak at the info session.

 

Also please note that Harland Clarke has extended an invitation to any interested faculty who would like to observe the day and learn more about their accounting/finance division.  This could provide some great insight to a growing employer in our market.  I plan to attend on behalf of my office, but would certainly appreciate your time and expertise if you can make it.  If you would like to sign up, please let me know at your earliest convenience.  Please note this will be an all-day event for the students; however, if you do have time conflicts that may not allow you to stay the entire time the organization does understand and would accommodate for any time you can offer.    

 

As always if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks as always for your support. Have a great evening!

 

Thanks,
