Record number of students explore potential career opportunities at Job Fair

Hundreds of students and alumni from the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT), Durham College and Trent University; and more than 55 organizations and 100 recruiters came together in the Campus Recreation and Wellness Centre (CRWC) for the annual Job Fair. All employers who attended the February 6 event were in a position to hire full-time, contract, summer, part-time or internship-based new staff within the next six months.

“We are committed to supporting students with their job search and the Job Fair provides students with an opportunity to network with employers in Durham Region, the Greater Toronto Area and beyond,” said Monica Aggarwal, Manager, Career Centre, UOIT. “Students are always looking ahead to their careers and the Job Fair provides a forum where they have an opportunity to explore career options and the qualifications for available positions.”

UOIT’s Career Centre teams up with the Career Services department at Durham College to host the Job Fair – a full-campus event that encourages attendance from students at both institutions.

Students who weren’t able to attend the Job Fair can use the online guidebook to follow up with employers to discuss opportunities available through their organizations. Further information is also available on the UOIT Career Centre website.
