“The two internships I completed helped set my resume apart when applying for full-time positions. Because of all the great companies that attend IST’s fall career fair, I was very fortunate to receive several job offers. I owe my success in obtaining internships and my full-time job to the IST’s Career Solutions Team. The two career fairs provide all of the students in the College a unique opportunity to advance their careers. The staff is always available and eager to give students advice and support to find them the perfect job.” —CaitlinDoyle,‘12IST/SRA
