Need a job? Head to the Student Employment Fair

Many opportunities await students looking for campus jobs

91²Ö¿â’s Office of Career Exploration and Development is sponsoring a Student Employment Fair from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Friday for students looking for a job on the Kent Campus. 

The event will take place in Room 218 of the Kent Student Center and will offer information about all on-campus student employment opportunities. Students will be able to meet and establish connections with employers and will receive a free professional headshot for use in future job searchers. To register, . 

Throughout the academic year, the office sponsors numerous job fairs and events to help students connect with employers for now and in the future. 

 Keith Smith, associate director of CED, said fairs like today's event and the one upcoming on Sept. 20, enable students to make important connections.

"We host fairs like the Student Employment Fair and the upcoming Internship, Co-op and Job Fair on September 20 because these events provide a quick opportunity for students to meet with many employers in a short period of time and vice versa for employers who are filling open roles within their department or organization," Smith said.

The fairs, he said, also offer students opportunities to learn more about professional paths within different organizations and to practice networking. 

"By attending a fair, you’re guaranteed to meet new people and learn something new about an employer or yourself," he said.

On Sept. 20, the office will offer the Fall Internship, Co-Op and Job Fair, from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. in the student center ballroom. 

That event is open to all students and alumni from all 91²Ö¿â campuses seeking: 

• Full-time, part-time, co-op, on-campus, and internship opportunities.
• Industry information. 
• Career advice. 
• Networking contacts. 
• Exploring organizations and opportunities.
