WHO: The University of Alabama Career Center is hosting this event. All UA students are welcome to attend.

WHAT: A general interest and business career fair for students to interact, network and discuss potential internship or full-time job offers with over 200 employers. The attire is business professional.

WHEN: Wednesday, Oct. 3, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m.

WHERE: Coleman Coliseum

WHY: The career fair is an opportunity for students to expose themselves to a wide selection of recruiters, gather information on opportunities and gain networking experience to further their professional careers.

“Last year after the career fair, we had about 700 interviews within our office because a lot of our employers would stay over,” said Shernavia Hall, director of operations for UA’s Career Center. “And these meetings could lead to internships, the next phase of interviews or full-time employment.”
