The Spring Career Fair, 2018 edition, has become a magnet for some of Canada’s top employers.
More than 100 employers will set up tables with company representatives who can answer students’ questions.
The jobs offered include summer, part-time, full-time, co-op, internships, practicums, fieldwork and volunteer opportunities.
For employers, the fair is one-stop shopping to connect with highly motivated, educated workers.
“Companies love recruiting and hiring University of Regina students. The U of R Career Centre regularly places over 800 students a year in Co-op and Internship positions,” says Fiessel. “When you add in the numbers of summer students hired at the Spring Career Fair, I am sure we are well over 1,000 students placed in any given year. These employers are here on campus every year to hire our students – and they are coming out in greater numbers than ever before.”
If you’re wishing to connect with potential employers, then the Career Fair might be your ticket to employment.
