Since 1997, CAHRS has involved partner companies in the annual fall ILR graduate orientation. The Executive Roundtables is not a recruiting fair, but is meant to provide students and executives a unique opportunity to exchange questions and ideas about the field of HR, the most important issues facing individual companies, the skills needed by future HR professionals, and what companies look for in recruiting entry-level professionals.
