Why Hire Marquette Graduates?

In today’s economic environment, employers are seeking a pipeline of talented individuals who will fulfill their ongoing employment needs, bring a professional commitment to ethics, “hit the ground running”, have a global perspective, and become the next generation of business leaders.

We believe that Marquette business students meet those requirements.

Our employers tell us that they benefit from hiring College of Business Administration students for jobs and internships in many ways.

  • Interns fill a gap in their organization, bring a fresh perspective to problems, and allow them to strategically allocate tasks within the organization.
  • Internships allow employers to recruit and screen talented students for potential future employees virtually risk-free – these positions allow the interns to prove themselves as employees and provide firms with the opportunity to evaluate prospective employees.
  • Marquette business students can help employers to develop a pipeline of talent for future needs as they grow their business and prepare future leaders.

The College’s emphasis on applied learning, ethics, and global studies means that when you hire a Marquette College of Business Administration graduate, you are hiring someone trained to be a global leader, ready to hit the ground running, and who understands that there is a lot more to your firm and business than just the bottom line. Our graduates will bring your organization fresh and innovative ideas. They have a strong work ethic, are enthusiastic and productive, and they have the benefit of a Jesuit business education that emphasizes ethics and social responsibility.
