LAC’s First Social Event

Save the date!

On Tuesday, July 30th from 5:30-7:30 pm, we will be hosting our first social networking event at Langara College. This is a valuable opportunity for students to make real connections with recruiters and make a first or final impression before submitting their resumes.

A friendly reminder that you will be meeting firm representatives and making first or final impressions before you submit your application. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you dress smart casual and do not forget your business cards.

To get the most out of the event and your time with reps, it is a good idea to research the firms you are most interested in and prepare specific questions to ask.

Sign up Here. We look forward to seeing you there!
