Capital Consortium (CapCon)

Interview Day: February 5, 2010 in Arlington, VA
Application Deadline: January 6 — Apply over winter break!

What is the Capital Consortium? Basically, it’s a one-day interview extravaganza.  Students from Middlebury, Connecticut College, Colgate, Hamilton, Smith, Tufts, Trinity, and Wesleyan apply to interview for jobs.

This event is an easy, efficient way to avoid the job-search panic of spring semester — especially if you’re going to be in the D.C. area for February break. Numerous Middlebury graduates have received job offers from this event!

15 employers are currently registered to interview students at the event and more are anticipated to register before the January 6 student application deadline date.

What if I won’t be in D.C. for break? Is there financial assistance? A travel stipend of $150 is available to students receiving financial aid.  Just remember to save your receipts and bring them to Career Services with your name, ID number, MC Box number, and country of citizenship.

How do I apply?

• Head to capcon.experience.com to register
• Click Create an Account and enter the “Access Token Word” capcon2010.
• Fill out your profile information and click Register.

Once you’ve created your profile, login, go to the calendar and click February 5. You’ll see a list of the CapCon 2010 Employers and the jobs they’re recruiting for. Review employer job descriptions and required application materials requirements, and apply to each job through the CapCon website.

As always, the hardest part is getting your applications done! Try to start at the beginning of break.  On January 14, students selected to interview at the event will receive email notification regarding interview selections and schedule sign-ups.
