A softening labor market is raising concerns for college students who will soon be looking for a job. But on the Colorado School of Mines campus in Golden, companies are practically fighting over future employees.Over 400 companies have set up booths for the School of Mines annual career fair. Many graduating seniors are hoping to be hired for a full-time job, while younger students have the potential to get internships or learn about different companies.
Recruiters like Shea Zeman from Freeport McMoRan agreed “soft skills” like communication and interview skills are important.“There are companies that do next-day interviews. They'll take your resume if they think you're qualified. They're going to want to talk to you,” Zeman said.Sophomore petroleum engineering major Coy Bowser got an internship through the career fair last year and said it’s often more competitive for the companies than for the students.
