[Biostudent] Student Event - Winter Career Fair

[BIOLOGY]

WHAT: 2024 Winter Job & Internship Fair

DATE: Tuesday, February 13, 2024

LOCATION: Husky Union Building, North & South Ballrooms

TIME: 11:00am – 2:30pm PT



A career fair is a connection opportunity for employers who have open roles and students who are currently in the job search phase. At an in-person career fair, events are hosted on campus in a large meeting space, wherein employers set up booths for students and alumni to visit. In-person career fairs are a great way for students to meet face-to-face with representatives of companies that appeal to students’ majors, interests, and goals.



The 2024 In-Person Winter Job & Internship fair is open to all majors and years of study, including alumni of all three UW campuses and community members. 101 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<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/app.joinhandshake.com/career_fairs/45774/employers_list__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!jqCkTVhj2MEaMoZR5YlmaCGfaonrOVr6Y-RR5p3mfSiVhFIpVOhFowRtvn8Qk2cCyrI-xWUp3nzLCoCfVJKiEJdo$>, register for the fair, and browse open positions prior to attending.
