This event includes two connected sessions:
10:00–11:00 a.m. | State of Michigan Application & Hiring
Information Session
Learn about the State of Michigan’s application and hiring
process, including what makes it different from other job
applications. Get tips and information to help you navigate the
process with confidence.
11:00 a.m.–1:00 p.m. | Panel Presentation & Networking
Hear from representatives from a variety of State of Michigan
departments during a panel presentation, followed by informal
networking. This is a great opportunity to ask questions, explore
career options, and make connections with state employees.
