Financial Management Association (FMA) and Career Services held their first Finance Networking Reception in the SSCB Atrium on Thursday 4/23. There were several faculty in attendance, and 76 students participated. We had several employers on the panel, and about ten tables for leaving resumes and finding out about careers.
The employers in attendance were:
Direct Energy (Bobby Miller)*
Dynegy (Tiffany McCaa)*
Belt Harris (Mark Rubio)*
Assoc. Credit Union of Texas (Amanda Loy and April Howe)*
Lockheed Martin
First Investors*
State Farm*
JSC Federal Credit Union
INEOS
NASA Co-op and Internships in procurement
* alums
Chuck Crocker of Career Services, and Jeremy Adams, Shine Lin, Charlie Roeder & Jeff Lee of FMA worked very hard to get this organized. The idea came from Chuck, and simultaneously from Ed Waller (Finance prof and department chair for the finance folks).
Everyone is to be congratulated on such a successful turnout, and we should look forward to doing this again next year.

FMA Finance Networking Night
The student Financial Management Association (FMA) chapter is going to be helping with the Finance Networking Reception on April 23rd (Thursday) from 4:30 until 7 PM. Career Services (led by Chuck Crocker) has graciously committed to helping FMA get things rolling.
As of today, we have 6 companies committed in the energy, financial services, and accounting industries. The program will be a panel discussion of what to expect when you get out and what each company/job does, followed by a meet-and-greet where you'll be able to ask questions individually of the representatives. Most of the folks coming are recent alums, so they'll know where you're coming from.
You can sign up at the Career Services web site at UHCL.edu:

Please plan to get involved if you can. Professional dress required.
