Ontario Tech acknowledges the lands and people of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation.

We are thankful to be welcome on these lands in friendship. The lands we are situated on are covered by the Williams Treaties and are the traditional territory of the Mississaugas, a branch of the greater Anishinaabeg Nation, including Algonquin, Ojibway, Odawa and Pottawatomi. These lands remain home to many Indigenous nations and peoples.

We acknowledge this land out of respect for the Indigenous nations who have cared for Turtle Island, also called North America, from before the arrival of settler peoples until this day. Most importantly, we acknowledge that the history of these lands has been tainted by poor treatment and a lack of friendship with the First Nations who call them home.

This history is something we are all affected by because we are all treaty people in Canada. We all have a shared history to reflect on, and each of us is affected by this history in different ways. Our past defines our present, but if we move forward as friends and allies, then it does not have to define our future.

Job Fairs

Career fairs are an excellent opportunity for students and employers to engage. Employers who are hiring are invited onto campus to showcase their company and discuss employment opportunities with a focused group of job-ready students and graduates. Career Fairs are targeted events with specific themes (e.g. Summer Jobs Fair) for a variety of employers to be on campus at the same time to discuss specific employment positions with students. We currently host three job fairs each year, the Job Fair hosted in conjunction with Durham College, and the Part-Time and Summer Job Fairs.

The Career Fair, hosted in conjunction with Durham College, is the largest career event on campus. Employers are invited to participate in recruitment for full-time, contract, summer, part-time, and co-op positions. This will provide you with an opportunity to address a larger number of students at once on topics such as but not limited to: career opportunities available at your organization, skills you are seeking with new hires, how to apply using your applicant tracking system, or how to succeed at a behavioural interview.

The Career Fair happens annually in the winter semester.
