Candidate Registration
  • Pre-registration is already open and will be open through the end of the day of the Career Fair. Register early to give yourself time to study the list of participating schools and opportunities.
  • Upload your resume immediately after registering so recruiters will have access to it. Uploading your resume and/or cover letter is the first step in making your materials available to participating schools. After you upload your documents into the system, they are visible immediately for review by recruiters. Universities may begin screening CVs and resumes prior to the event and also invite you to visit their specific chat sessions and/or schedule video interviews before, during, or after the event hours.
Participants need only a computer and internet access to participate. Webcams, avatars, and photos are NOT required. Interactions between employers and participants will be primarily through text chatting. (Institutions do have the ability to initiate one-on-one video chats with you. If this is the case, you should be dressed as if you were going on an interview. Make that first impression a good one! We also recommend you check what is visible behind you so that there is nothing to distract the recruiter.)
  • Note: It is acceptable to indicate to a recruiter that you are unable to video chat, if this is not an option for you at the time of the request.
  • For the best experience, participants should log on using an up-to-date version of Google Chrome (preferred) or Firefox from a desktop/laptop; these are required to be able to view/hear any multimedia broadcasts presented by employers. The most up-to-date versions of Safari and Microsoft Edge will also work.
