More than 100 local and national employers will be on the Danforth Campus Friday, Oct. 2, for the Fall 2009 Internship & Job Career Fair.
“The Career Fair is a great opportunity to show our students that while the economy is currently in a difficult place, many top-notch employers are still looking to hire talented people,” said Mark Smith, assistant vice chancellor and director of the Career Center.
The fair will take place from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. in the Field House of the Athletic Complex.
Recruitment for finance, banking, consulting, computer science, information technology and consumer products and retail merchandising is typically high in the fall.
This year, however, campus visits are scheduled with more than 35 organizations in nonprofit, educational institutions and government firms.
Featured employers scheduled to attend include Amnesty International; Bloomberg; Deloitte & Touche; ESPN; Google; Johnson & Johnson; Hallmark Cards; L’Oreal USA; Motorola Corp.; Nickelodeon; PricewaterhouseCoopers; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; and the William J. Clinton Foundation, among others.
The fair will provide WUSTL students a unique opportunity to meet and interview with dozens of potential employers in a short amount of time.
