Semester-Long Career Fair
What is better than a career fair that lasts just a little more than half a day? One that lasts an entire semester! Introducing the Semester-Long Career Fair brought to you by the Career Services team from the Office of Student Services at the School of Nursing!
What is in the Semester-Long Career Fair for School of Nursing (SoN) students?
Both you and employers have more quality time for meaningful, face-to-face interaction for networking and learning about each other. Best of all: the semester-long concept has been designed to give you a competitive advantage in the career learning and searching process by having employers come to campus to provide face-to-face meet-and-greet and information sessions coupled with guaranteed (most employers) on-campus interviews!
How does the Semester-Long Career Fair work?
Employer Side
Employers will be on campus at selected times throughout the Spring 2018 semester to hold meet-and-greet and information sessions to connect with ALL interested undergraduate and graduate students. In most cases, their sessions will be coupled (on the same day or at a later date) with a guaranteed interview for targeted classification (e.g., freshmen, sophomore, juniors, seniors, graduates) of students who attend. That is, targeted students are guaranteed a first-round on-campus interview! In some cases, the first-round is the final-round interview.
Student Side
- RSVP for the meet-and-greet and information sessions of your choice (as many as you like).
- Show up on time for the session(s) for which you sent in RVSPs.
- RSVP for interview(s) that interest you. Only students listed under the recruitment target section will be selected for interviews. The RSVP window will close 1-2 days in advance of the presentation.
- Prepare for and show up on time for the interview(s).
Professional Etiquette & Expectations
- Business casual attire is required for meet-and-greet and information sessions. Business professional is required for interviews. Students who do not follow the attire requirements will be asked to leave the session and/or interview.
- RSVPing for sessions and interviews are required for attendance. RSVP numbers also help employers plan for enough materials, seating, and representatives.
- Students who are no-shows for their sessions and/or interviews will lose the privilege to attend future sessions and interviews.
