This week long event provides the candidates the ability to learn more about the Company, as well as an opportunity to complete their final interviews for a potential full time offer before departing.
Similar to last year, we have two separate requisitions posted for TETRE (descriptions attached), one for USEFN (U.S. Educated Foreign National Students) and one for U.S. Students.  For the USEFN Students, we’re specifically looking to fill roles in China or India.
