SPRING 2018 Recruitment Week
It has been a busy past few weeks for the Psi Upsilon Chapter. From preparing weeks in advance for
Spring 2018 Recruitment Week to executing a successful recruitment week, and finally to welcoming
the new Potential Sigma Class. The Brothers could not be more excited for the journey our Potential
Sigma Class will now begin… But let’s start with behind the scenes.

THE WEEK BEFORE RECRUITMENT WEEK:
Our very own VP of Marketing, Michael Tien, had a vision… There is a time and place for everything
and Spring 2018 Recruitment Week was TIME FOR BUSINESS. We started off with a countdown on
our Facebook event page and Instagram page that highlights the University of California, Merced
campus as well as the Brothers that were ready for business. What better way to get get pumped for
recruitment week than seven whole days of good views and sharp business attire. We also tabled
along Scholar’s Lane, handing out business cards that contained next week’s schedule and answered
any questions about our organization.

SPRING 2018 RECRUITMENT WEEK:
DAY ONE: Meet the Brothers
This first event of the week is the craziest. All professional organizations are gathered in the COB2
courtyard with their canopies raised and large wooden letters that acted as the gate to professional
growth. Potential members wandered through the courtyard as they decided where they wanted to
begin their journey. At the Alpha Kappa Psi canopy, the Brothers wore their navy blue polos to
distinguish themselves from others. The event lasted longer than expected as we mingled and
shared our story of professional and personal development to prospects into the evening.

DAY TWO: Info Night
The Potential New Member Educators hosted an info session for prospects to better understand our
organization. A break down of who we are, what we do, and WHY we do it. It was about sharing our
vision in hopes that prospects also had the same one. The info session was short and sweet and
allowed for the Brothers and prospects to network and ask further questions.

DAY THREE: Burgers and Bros
What an event! Lots of prospects came out to Burgers and Bros. The catch of receiving a free In-N-Out
burger was having to complete a bingo questionnaire game. We created a bingo game that allowed
prospects to ask questions that were less serious and formal. Questions like “What is your favorite
memory in college?” and “Who is your celebrity crush?” Prospects received a sticker to complete their
bingo game any time a Brother answered one of the questions. We know that we come off as if we are
all about business and being serious, but we wanted prospects to know that we also enjoy a good
laugh too!

DAY FOUR: Mock Interviews
Whether or not an individual wanted to join Alpha Kappa Psi, Mock Interviews was the event of the
week. The sole purpose was to prepare for an interview and learn tips and tricks that have helped our
very own Brothers survive. Although questions were catered to practice for the Alpha Kappa Psi
interview, we helped prospects practice things from having a firm handshake to using the STAR
method when answering a question. Hopefully the prospects will continue to use the interview skills
we shared!
