Featured Fall Event:

The Fall Career Fair took place on Wednesday, October 28, 2026 in Newman Gymnasium. There were 70  organizations represented and 200 students networked and discussed internships and full-time jobs across diverse industries.

 
Who should attend a Career Fair?

Career Fairs are for everyone, including students who are exploring, and not yet looking for full-time jobs. Freshmen and sophomores are in an excellent, low-stakes position to explore possibilities, expand their knowledge about careers, start building their network, and practice professional conversations. Some employers also take on interns starting as early as freshman year.

Juniors and seniors seeking internships and full-time jobs in preparation for graduation should absolutely plan to attend and network. There may be interviews and job offers made on the spot or soon after the event.

Make the most of the event by following these Steps for Success:

1) Polish your resume. Bring copies for your top 5-10 target organizations. Research those companies prior to the fair.
 
2) Practice your introductory pitch so you can approach tables with confidence, discuss your interests and share your resume.
 
3) Dress to impress! Plan your business professional outfit. Visit the Professional Clothing Closet for FREE clothing, to make a positive, professional impression.
 
4) Attend with an open mind, stay curious, explore and network to learn about internships and job opportunities!
