The Meet and Greet is a one-time meeting between students and mentors that takes place at the company. You will take a bus to the company. Most Meet and Greets are held over the lunch hour, but variations in the time of day are possible. Every event includes an overview of the company, time for you and your mentor to get to know one another, and lunch or a snack. Mentors often show you their worksite by providing a tour. Tours may be organized for groups or led individually. Meet and Greets may also include other structured activities. Popular activities include mock interview experiences, resume reviews, or career panels. Please note that some connections may be all virtual and will have virtual activities instead of an in-person Meet & Greet.
