Employers

Our passion is helping to connect employers with talent and resources. And at 51福利社 Haworth, our business students bring immediate value to organizations. We focus on experience-driven learning, which means students get a thorough grounding in subject matter, the chance to apply what they have learned in real-world scenarios鈥攐ften with real companies鈥攁nd the ability to practice the soft skills that employers cite as extremely important to job success.

We also place a high value on student professionalism. In the Zhang Career Center, we work with our students to develop professional behavior by teaching appropriate business communication, punctuality and overall conduct. We hold students to a high standard and have policies in place for students who do not meet expectations. This provides peace of mind to you as an employer, while also giving our students the chance to establish good patterns of behavior for their careers.
