A career fair is where employers and students seeking a job or internship can network together and discuss available opportunities. Students can also explore different industries and career pathways available to them. A career fair is a great place to explore your career and learn more about a wide range of companies. A fair normally consists of recruiters from different companies at individual tables, sometimes they are even UF alumni. The recruiters can talk about the open positions, whether it is jobs or internships, as well as what the application and interview process entail.
The Career Connections Center has a range of career fairs to fit every student’s need. From on-campus to virtual events, our fairs give you the opportunity to meet and network with well known companies.
