Schedule an Information Session Location

To arrange for a group information session at any of these locations, contact the facility directly to reserve the room you will need. Schedule your room at least six weeks or more in advance for maximum space availability and publicity purposes.

If you have questions about how to coordinate the event with your on-campus recruiting efforts, contact the Employer Relations & Recruiting Office at (510) 642-0464 or by email. For example, we can extend your OCR resume submission deadline until after your event.

We encourage you to request written confirmation of your reservation and advertise your event on our web calendar.
