CAL POLY POMONA — Xcel Mechanical’s Recruitment & Outreach Team attended the California Plumbing and Mechanical Contractors Association (CPMCA) Student Chapter Mixer at Cal Poly Pomona today to engage students interested in careers in mechanical contracting.

About 80 students attended the event to learn more about Design Build mechanical contracting and potential careers in the industry. Other mechanical contractors in attendance included ACCO Engineered Systems, Brymax Construction Services, Couts Mechanical, MOE Plumbing, Murray Company, Pan-Pacific Mechanical, Southland Mechanical, TIMEC, and University Mechanical.

The event featured a round-robin style format, during which students rotated between contractor tables in 15-minute sessions, allowing them to engage directly with multiple company recruiters.

Throughout the interactive event, students asked questions and learned from industry professionals what design-build mechanical contracting entails and how to build their own career in the industry.

The event underscored CPMCA and Xcel Mechanical’s commitment to professional workforce development, mentorship and industry outreach. By engaging directly with students, Xcel Mechanical continues to invest in the future of the mechanical contracting industry one student at a time.
