  • Expo and Interviews:  We are doing something different this year.  Instead of a set interview sign-up time, we will have a "red" and "green" system to let Candidates know if a Recruiter is busy or available.  Our goal is provide increased Candidate traffic to tables and autonomy in scheduling interviews throughout the two day event.  Be sure to come to our Recruiter Info Meeting on September 24 to learn more. 

  • Lunch: Recruiters may take lunch at their leisure. A food court is located across from the Shalala Student Center. If all recruiters from your school leave your table at the same time, please turn your AMISA interview availability placard to red before leaving so candidates know you are temporarily unavailable. When you return, change the placard back to green to indicate you are available to meet with candidates.
