Many job fairs
and career fairs are held on and off the Virginia Tech campus throughout
the academic year — Career Services maintains a list with links
to each fair's web site. Fairs are typically focused on particular
career fields or industries or types of employment. Review the list
of fairs to determine which fairs match your career interests.
Each fair has its own sponsor and its own web site; review these
as well. There are employers attending fairs who are actively recruiting
students with disabilities. |
