Fair Logistics
How will an online virtual career fair work? What will it look like? What should I expect?
During the online virtual career fair you will be able to engage with students in 30-minute group sessions with up to 50 students (or more if using an external system such as Zoom), and/or doing 10-minute 1 on 1 sessions individually with a student. Think of the group sessions as presenting to a class or interested group of students, and think of the 1 on 1 sessions as someone stopping at your booth to quickly chat about their experience and do a quick preview of their portfolios. These sessions can all be done through chat, audio, video, or all of the above. To learn more about the online career fair please watch the Handshake Virtual Career Fair Employer Training, which can be found here.

Register Online
Registration will be in 2 steps this year.
- Register as usual through the “Register Now” button above. Once you submit registration, the Career Center will review it.
- Once the Career Center approves your registration (usually within 24 hours), you will need to go back into Handshake to set up your group sessions or 1 on 1 sessions. Remember, this is the only way that students will be able to connect with your firm/company. Students can only sign up as early, or as soon as, you have your sessions set up.
