@Amaayezing As a side note, the smaller % of recent college grads getting hired through on campus interviews and on-campus career fairs isn’t specific to UCSB-- it’s a national trend, as social medial has made it much easier for recruiters to identify applicants and internal recruiting departments have cut-back recruiting directly on-campus. Of course there are still plenty of employers that do, but I caution seniors not to rely solely on on-campus interviews to gain employment. I recruit for a F100 company and we recently cut our on-campus presence completely across universities. Having a strong alumni network has become a very strong component of job hunting and fortunately UCSB’s alumni network is incredibly strong!
