Pitt Business Career Development Conference

The 2017 Pitt Business Career Development Conference is scheduled for September 22, 2017 at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh.

We are anticipating at least 75 recruiting organizations to participate, and they are recruiting for jobs and internships across every single major. View the 2016 Conference Agenda to get a sense of who may be there. At the conference, there will be morning panel discussions hosted by the companies, a networking lunch with the companies, and an afternoon career fair with the companies.

At Pitt Business, we take students on a journey from the classroom, to the city, to the world, and the career conference is an important step on that journey.
