WWU to Host Rescheduled Winter Career Fair March 7

Job seekers looking to connect directly with employers are invited to attend Western Washington University’s Winter Career Fair, which will take place Tuesday, March 7 from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Viking Union Multipurpose Room.  Admission to the fair is free and the event is open to the public.

Sponsored by WWU’s Career Services Center, the Winter Career Fair is a major recruiting event that allows students and the general public to meet with hiring managers from numerous organizations, including private-sector companies, non-profit organizations and government agencies.  This year’s event, originally set for Feb. 9, was rescheduled due to inclement weather.

The fair provides valuable opportunities for students and alumni of all majors to discuss internship and employment possibilities with participating organizations.  For those who may be uncertain about their career goals or options, the Winter Career Fair is an excellent resource for conducting job market research. 

To make the most of the Career Fair experience, job seekers should research participating companies in advance, dress in professional business attire, and bring lots of resumes. For a complete listing of participating employers and information about how to prepare for the fair, please visit the Career Services Center website at http://www.wwu.edu/careers/.
