Student-Postdoc Job & Opportunity Fair
The SC14 HPC Interconnections (HPCI) Program will host the Student Job/Opportunity Fair from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, November 19. This face-to-face event will be open to all students and postdocs participating in the SC14 Conference, giving them an opportunity to meet with potential employers. Previous Student Job/Opportunity Fairs have had employers from research labs, academic institutions, recruiting agencies and private industry who met with students to discuss graduate fellowships, internships, summer job, co-op, graduate school assistant positions or permanent employment. We expect this year’s event to be equally successful.
Submitted resumes will be provided to organizations participating in the job fair.
Participating organizations
Participating organizations will have the opportunity to interact with the students in fields related to computer science, information systems, scientific computing and high-performance computing. Ideally, each organization will send two representatives (one from HR as well as one technical person).
Participating students and postdocs
The Student Job Fair event is open to all students and postdocs participating in the SC14 Conference. Students and postdocs that wanted to faciliate connections with organizations submitted up-to-date resumes before the SC Conference. Students and postdocs registered for SC14 will receive instructions on how to submit their resumes via email.
Some useful tips for students preparing their resumes
Do –
- Include your contact information, objective and career summary
- Make it simple, balanced and well organized
- Space the sections so that they are easy to distinguish
- Be consistent in style, font, spacing, indentation, etc.
- Quantify accomplishments when you can
- Use action verbs to describe your activities and accomplishments
Don't –
- Use multiple fonts, underlining, boldface type
- Abbreviate
- Use passive statements
- Include generic interests unrelated to the job you are seeking
- State "references available upon request" – that will be assumed
