Employer and industry partnerships

Guidance for hiring hurdles and strategy slumps

All businesses face two common challenges: hiring the right people and staying competitive in a rapidly evolving marketplace. For guidance, a fresh perspective, and a direct talent pipeline, why not partner with the Warrington College of Business?

Through internships and recruitment, you’ll notice our students’ ingenuity from the get-go. Our institution’s research identifies the root of market patterns, and when you’re ready to grow, our faculty outline what you need to do.

And among all this, forging connections — with students eager for experience, prominent thought leaders, and decades of distinguished alumni — means you always know where to look. For that new hire. Or planning your next stage. Here’s what to expect.

What we offer our employer partners

We’re now-thinkers, forward-lookers, results-makers and expert analyzers. That’s more than talk: Warrington students go beyond the books and lectures to adapt to every advancement, while our studies influence how you do your job.
