Partner Success Stories:

"The students we have recruited from UCSC have been among the best and the brightest we've hired. They are all top performers and highly dedicated to their profession, clients, colleagues and above all, to our firm's values especially, "quality in everything we do". They have also shown an in-depth knowledge of current regulatory and environmental changes (i.e. Sarbanes Oxley) and have consistently worked with integrity. Without a doubt, they are an integral part of our Bay Area practice and the reason we will always continue to recruit at UCSC."
-Maria Kennedy, Campus Recruiter, Ernst and Young

 

"Target is excited to partner with UCSC in bringing top talent to our fast growing company. We have brought on board a number of high caliber students that exhibit leadership, resilience, and drive for our Executive Intern and Executive Team Leader positions. The Career Center has been instrumental to the success of our campus recruiting efforts and we look forward to our continued partnership."
