• Fox Cities Communities on Campus Information

    A Program of the Fox Cities Chamber at Michigan Tech University & UW-Platteville
  • The goal of this recruiting event is to showcase the Fox Cities to college students - where it's located, what makes it livable, and why students should bring their talents here. As an employer, you have the unique opportunity to go to two campuses, surrounded only by others from the Fox Cities, and have more 1:1 time with students because this is a smaller recruiting event. 

    We strongly encourage you to bring something interactive to show what your business does and what you're hoping a new hire can do. Additionally, we encourage you to bring handouts for the students, and we are requesting one larger item from each business (if you're attending both events, we'd request two items) to help us put together "A Taste of the Fox Cities" sampler basket to raffle off for actively participating students.  

    Please fill in the information on the following few pages so we can accommodate your booth set-up.  We will provide each business with a document for your table that includes a map of the Fox Cities and livability facts in conjunction with your business name, logo, hiring majors, job types, and QR code to your website. We strongly encourage you to have a student sign-up option either digitally or in print.  At both locations, you will have an opportunity to meet with students after the event for more personalized 1:1 conversations or to set up a phone conversation at a later date.

    Hotel accommodations are listed on the page before checkout. A copy of this form will be sent to the email provided below. There will also be an option to review your answers prior to submitting.
