Nike Roadtrip

What's the dress code for an interview at Nike World Headquarters? What percentage of Nike interns land jobs at the company? Members of the Warsaw Sports Business Club (WSBC) learned the answers to these questions—and many more—during the group's recent visit to the company's Beaverton campus. Events kicked off with a presentation on the company's history and brand, followed by a question and answer session with four UO alums currently working there. "Being able to highlight successful alumni on the panel showed what is possible for our students to achieve," said sports business instructor Whitney Wagoner, the club's advisor. The grand finale? The chance to shop the Nike Employee Store. Fittingly enough, the spirit of competition infused even the trip's selection process, in which eighty WSBC members vied for sixty available spots by presenting the club's executive team with their resumes and responses to real-life Nike interview questions.
