UW Seattle 2024 Virtual Summer Job & Internship Fair (Info for Students)

A career fair is a connection opportunity for employers who have open roles and students who are currently in the job search phase. Virtual career fairs are hosted on an online platform; the UW Career & Internship Center uses Handshake, which offers students an opportunity to connect with employers in two ways: 30-minute Group Sessions and 10-minute 1:1 Sessions. Virtual career fairs are a great way for students to meet with representatives of companies that appeal to students’ majors, interests, and goals in a virtual setting, which can be less overwhelming and more efficient than in-person career fairs.

The 2024 Virtual Summer Job & Internship Fair is open to all majors and years of study, including alumni of all three UW campuses. Registration will open to UW Seattle students and alumni in mid-June. Registration will open to UW Bothell and UW Tacoma students and alumni on the Friday before Fair Day.

DATE:

Wednesday, June 26, 2024

LOCATION:

Virtual, via Handshake

TIME:

11:30am – 2:30pm PT

MORE INFORMATION:

Student registration takes place in Handshake. It will not open until mid-June to allow employers ample time to set their schedules of Group and 1:1 sessions.

When registration opens, you must A. register for the fair, and B. sign up for sessions with employers. There is no way to participate in the fair without signing up for employer sessions.
