Each year we do one or two rounds of campus recruiting. We’re currently finishing up our second round for this year with campus recruiting activities taking place at 5 universities including universities in the neighboring cities of Ningbo and Nanjing.
We’ve been quite successful with campus recruiting in the past resulting in it becoming one of our key avenues for finding great people to add to our team, and this year’s events have completely exceeded our expectations. The number of attendees have more than tripled what we’ve experienced in previous years. Awareness of Perficient as a preferred employer is growing and interest in joining us is high. We’ve already started the interview process, with our pair-programming interview team busily working busily to identify great additions to our team. It’s invigorating to see the energy and anticipation in the faces of prospective employees as they enter our lobby, and I’m looking forward to many of them joining our demanding Boot Camp training program early in the new year. With so many applicants we’ll have to run two or more sessions back-to-back for the first time since the program started. It’s an exciting way to wrap up our campus recruiting activities for 2010 and look forward to some great learning in 2011.
If you’re a student reader who happened to miss out on our campus recruiting activities, don’t worry. You can still contact our recruiting team through our website to have the opportunity to test and interview. Of course if you’re not a student you’re welcome to apply as well. We’re always on the hunt for great additions to our team.
