Amanda Hansen, Associate Director of Employer Relations, scouted top companies to make the trek to New York City a great success. In her sixth year of coordinating this phenomenal experience, she visited alumni and recruiters from Snapchat, Spotify, Fendi, HelloFresh, Braze (pictured right), Birchbox, Tiffany and Co., GeistM, Tower Research Capital and DAS 42. Her recruiting efforts led to the New York City trek expanding into two industry tracks: Marketing & Technology and Fashion & Media. Over 40 students traveled with our office in December of 2019Ìýand thoroughly enjoyed their company visits. One student evenÌýlanded a summer internship with LinkedIn by taking advantage of this connection. We are so thankful for Amanda and her team's hardwork to make the career treks a one-of-a-kind experience!
