Record attendance highlights Freeman Days New Orleans

This year’s Freeman Days New Orleans recruiting and networking event broke records for both corporate participation and alumni involvement.

Freeman Days kicked off on Thursday, March 11, with the annual alumni networking reception. More than 150 people attended this year’s event, which gives students the opportunity to mix and mingle with both alumni and corporate recruiters. That number included more than 60 alumni, an all-time high for the reception.

On Friday, a record 31 companies held information sessions, far exceeding last year’s total of 16 companies. Among the firms presenting this year were Abercrombie & Fitch, Booz Allen Hamilton, Deloitte, Disney, Google, Harrah’s, Intralox, Merrill Lynch, Northwestern Mutual, Ochsner, Pan-American Life, the Receivables Exchange, Verizon Wireless and Zehnder Communications.
