Reverse Career Fair
The Reverse Career Fair is an event for students who are interested in co-op or internship opportunities, or new graduates getting a head start on finding a job for when they graduate.
How it works:
The Reverse Career Fair is different from your traditional Career Fair; employers are there to talk to you, not the other way around! To participate, students will set up a booth and employers will come to you! Students are encouraged to bring a project or display, which is a great way to start a conversation and show employers what they are passionate about. It is a great opportunity to gain interview experience, discover employers you hadn't heard of before, and make professional connections.
