UO delivery tree cur awn* Who draws the recruiters? University’s top students with the ‘right’ majors By FRANK SHAW Corporate recruiters are propelled across the country in the search for the best and the brightest that schools have to offer. Why do companies choose to come to the University? Recruiters and Larry Smith, Director of the University’s Career Planning and Placement Office agree on the answer The University has the "right" students and programs — the best and the brightest "Companies come to Oregon because we have excellent academic programs and bec ause the level of the students is generally high,” Smith says Randy Massengale, a college recruiter for Tektronix, stressed the University's strong com puter science department as one of the key reasons Tektron ix recruits here "Overall, we like to hire students from the University because they are usually from the Northwest and they want to stay here," he says Massengale says Tektronix comes to Eugene primarily for three types of graduates: com puter science majors, students in hard sciences such as chemistry or biology and the students with the much-herald ed Masters of Business Admin istration The company recruits for MBA’s at only two schools, Massengale says, the University and the University of Washing ton. Tektronix hires five to ten University students per year, depending on the company's needs, he says. Eileen Snider, recruiting dir ector for Intel Corporation in Portland, says her company comes to the University primari ly for computer science majors and business majors, too "In the last four years we've hired 25 people from the University," she says. "They've been located in Arizona, California and Oregon, but mostly in Oregon, because that's where they want to stay " The major most frequently requested by companies com ing to the Univerisity is busi ness, with 43 requests, or 13 percent of the total requests, according to placement office figures. me nexi must pupuuai majw is accounting, with 12 percent of the total Marketing and computer science were next in line with eight and seven per cent of the companies request ing them, respectively. Liberal arts majors accounted for only four percent of majors requested The breakdown is little differ ent in the numbers of employers who came to the University Twenty-six employers, or 16 percent of those who came to the University, represented consumer products. Education, library and research were the second most frequent category of employers who came to the University, with 16 percent of the total Electronics and tech nical employers were the only other group above ten percent. The highest number of posi tions available in companies which recruit at the Univeristy was in personnel management, with 20 percent of the total Next came marketing sales with 17 percent and accountants with 15 percent Architects, artists and plan ners shared last place with only one position each.
