About two dozen employers made themselves available to job-seeking students in the semester's penultimate Recruitment Day, arranged by Career Services and held Tuesday in the Carl Building Technologies Center.
Occupying perpendicular hallways of the BTC, recruiters shared their industry needs with tomorrow makers enrolled in electrical technology, electronics & computer engineering technology; engineering & industrial design technology, and information technology.
The final Recruitment Day, focused on plastics & polymer majors, is set from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday in the Breuder Advanced Technology & Health Sciences Center atrium.

Among the alumni on hand, ready to recruit, is 2005 manufacturing engineering technology graduate Kyle R. Rhoads, operations manager with Fry Communications Inc.
