Business students celebrate signing internship and job offers
On December 4, the Ivy College of Business Career Services (BCS) staff hosted Ivy CYning Day, a half-day event celebrating student success. In addition to providing students with free snacks and drinks, the event provided students with the opportunity to celebrate their signing of an internship or full-time job offer.
“I had a great time connecting with students and faculty to celebrate the internships that we received,” said Jack Turcotte, a sophomore from West Des Moines, Iowa, studying actuarial science and finance. Turcotte will be joining Principal Financial Group this summer as an actuarial intern. “CYning Day once again demonstrated Ivy’s passion for promoting and celebrating their students’ professional success.”
Students had their photos taken with signs highlighting their acceptance and fun props tied to the event’s theme. The photos create opportunities for students to post on LinkedIn and share their news. Also, students using the event photo in a post who tagged Ivy using the hashtag #IvyCYningDay were entered into a drawing for the chance to win one of three $50 gift cards.
Regan Saxton, a senior from Eldridge, Iowa, studying supply chain management and marketing, will be joining John Deere full-time as a part of their supply chain rotational program. She attended CYning Day. “It was a very fun experience.”
