A career fair is a connection opportunity for employers who have open roles and students who are currently in the job search phase. Virtual career fairs are hosted on an online platform; the UW Career & Internship Center uses Handshake, which offers students an opportunity to connect with employers in two ways: 30-minute Group Sessions and 10-minute 1:1 Sessions. Virtual career fairs are a great way for students to meet with representatives of companies that appeal to students’ majors, interests, and goals in a virtual setting, which can be less overwhelming and more efficient than in-person career fairs.
The 2024 Virtual Summer Job & Internship is open to all majors and years of study, including alumni, of all three UW campuses. 12 registered employers are actively recruiting Huskies for full- and part-time career and internship roles across all industries. Preview the list of currently-registered employers here, register for the fair, and browse open positions prior to attending. Students will also need to register for open Group or 1:1 Sessions in order to build up their schedule of employer meetings. There is no way to participate in the fair without registering for sessions.
We encourage students to update their Handshake profiles with recent job, volunteer and coursework experience, as well as a resume for employers to review.
