Austin is known for its vibrant start-up culture. From 2010-2013, it led the nation in small business growth rate at 7%. The University of Texas at Austin is ranked as the #5 public undergraduate business program in the nation according to the U.S. News and World Report. Together, Austin start-ups and McCombs should be an elite combination, but McCombs largely fails to take advantage of the tremendous opportunity for students to intern and recruit with local start-ups. This petition is to be shared with McCombs students who wish for a diversification in the types of companies that recruit in McCombs.

its so frustrating having the same five consulting firms at the career fair every single year. we need some variety and actual tech startup presence.

TIRED OF THE BIG FOUR OBSESSION. local austin startups are doing way more interesting work and we should be exposed to that instead.

The problem is company sponsorship. Mccombs needs to make it possible for these companies to pool together!
