Spring 2022 Teacher Career Fair
This fair is an excellent opportunity for College of Education students and alumni to familiarize themselves with the job market and get acquainted with offerings from the various school districts and other recruiting organizations. Undergraduate candidates in Teacher Certification and graduate students from Curriculum & Instruction, School of Information, Educational Administration, Educational Psychology and Special Education are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to talk to recruiters and make contacts with the recruiting entities.
Preparation
Attending video sessions instead of an in-person Career Fair means there is no waiting in line to talk to recruiters. After you register, you must sign up for specific session times to secure your spot with the employers would like to meet.
There are two types of virtual fair sessions:
Group Sessions
During these 30-minute sessions, you’ll join other students to meet recruiters and other employees at the organization. You’ll learn about job and internship opportunities, company culture and more. You’ll also have an opportunity to ask your own questions.
PRO-TIP: Your profile privacy settings must be set to “Community” to participate in group sessions. If you prefer more private profile settings, we suggest you set your profile to “Community” for the fair and then switch it back to “Employer” or “Private” after.
One-on-one Sessions
This is an opportunity to chat directly with a recruiter or employee ambassador about jobs and internships. You must meet employer criteria for 1:1 10-minute sessions.
PRO-TIP: Your profile privacy settings must be set to “Employer” OR “Community” to participate in 1:1 sessions.
Recruiters will likely review your profile before a session, so be sure to update your Handshake profile with your role and location preferences, as well as GPA, skills, organizations and work experience! In many cases, recruiters will set qualifications for students so they are able to best connect with those who meet their organization’s needs. Make sure your profile is complete and detailed.
Visit Preparation for Career Fairs and Tips to Dress for Success in order to make the most of this event. Your Career Engagement Coordinator is also available to help you prepare for the fair. Schedule a career coaching appointment.
Interviews (invitation only) will be scheduled at a later time by individual recruiters.
