Reverse Career Fairs
At our Reverse Career Fairs, students and graduates host tables and employers circulate the room to share information about their job and internship opportunities. Employers are looking for the skills our students are developing inside and outside the classroom, such as leadership, team-building, event planning, and problem-solving. We currently host two different Reverse Career Fairs, one for students in our Faculty of Business and Information Technology programs, and one for students in our Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and Faculty of Energy Systems and Nuclear Science programs.
2020 Reverse Career Fair
The Reverse Career Fair will be held virtually in 2020. This event gives employers a chance to network with undergraduate and graduate students to discuss co-op, internship and new graduate opportunities at your organization. Students from all of our business, IT and engineering programs will be sharing the skills, research and projects they have completed at the university. You are encouraged to review the submissions before the event. Students will also provide resumés after they have attended your session.
The 2020 Reverse Career Fair takes place the week of October 13. Visit the Reverse Career Fair website to learn more and register your organization to attend.
