Over 50 representatives from 23 companies from around the US had the opportunity to interact with our graduating students from all of our programs. At Career Day, company reps reviewed student portfolios and all were given the opportunity to make short presentations to the students. Seven companies to the advantage of their time on campus to conduct student interviews. Forty-three students were interviewed on site, some of which were invited for second interviews in the coming weeks.

Career Day is a culmination of everything that we do at DigiPen and everyone on campus played a role in preparing the students and facilities for this event, the Student Services team would specifically like to thank to everyone who helped including the game department, art department, IT, facilities and productions.
