This is an opportunity for students to compete while sharing creative solutions with business leaders from the companies that do HR best. Additionally, the competition features both a graduate and undergraduate division, with cash prizes awarded to 1st- and 2nd-place teams in each division, as well as to the best speaker and the best Q&A responder among all participants.
