The Edward H. Schmidt School of Professional Sales (ESSPS) at the University of Toledo hosts a number of annual outreach events throughout the academic year that are designed to engage with our business community for talent recruitment, strategic alignment, and sales force development.
Speed Recruiting – October 16th, 2009
Recruiters determine which students they meet with by having everyone (recruiters and students) fill out online profiles in advance and then having a system scan them for similarities to create a “love connection” that will be used to determine everyone's schedule. Students will be changing seats every 7.5 minutes to meet with new recruiters.
