Is recruiting new employees, especially for entry-level positions, a challenge for your organization? Or, are you looking for an opportunity to meet with students to tell them about your university’s graduate program? Would you like to interface with students and recent graduates to tell them about your organization, what it does, and what it looks for in terms of new employees or graduate students? If so, don’t miss out on your chance to participate in the 89th AMS Annual Meeting Career Fair, 10-13 January 2009.
On the evening of Saturday, January 10, the Career Fair will open with a reception for the over 300 graduate students and junior and senior undergraduate students attending the 8th Annual AMS Student Conference. This event is an ideal time to promote your organization, distribute literature on job vacancies and graduate school opportunities, and schedule interviews for later in the week. As a participating employer or university, you will be assigned a table in order to display handouts and other information about your organization.
The Career Fair will continue on Sunday, January 11 through Tuesday, January 13. While Saturday night’s opening reception is open only to participants in the Student Conference, the Career Fair may be visited by any registered Annual Meeting attendee during its regular hours of operation (Sunday 5:00 PM-7:00 PM; Monday and Tuesday 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM).
If you are interested in reserving a table for either the opening night reception or for any day during the Career Fair’s hours of operation, please complete a reservation form at

and return it by fax to 617.742.8718 or by e-mail to bfarley@ametsoc.org no later than 28 November 2008. Space is limited so requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Specific information about the Career Fair will be e-mailed to you after we receive your reservation.
