Your weekly message from the advising team:
Today’s email is 100% dedicated to the 15th Annual CEE Career Fair taking place on Th, Jan 28th from 1-4pm virtually on the Handshake platform (Register Now!).
There are currently 42 companies registered with group and 1-on-1 sessions available. Check your email for the same title as this to be able to access a PDF of all the registered employers. Additional sessions and possibly additional employers will be added between now and next Thursday so we recommend checking back in to see what is available throughout the week.
Regardless of your class standing, we recommend that you register for the Career Fair, research companies you may be interested in and sign up for their sessions (group or 1:1).
Even if you are not actively looking for a job or internship, gaining experience talking with employers and learning about those hiring CEE students will be valuable as you move through the program and begin looking for opportunities.
Preparation for the Career Fair
- CC@E Prep Workshop: Gail and Michael from The Career Center @ Engineering hosted a Career Fair Prep Workshop earlier this week for CEE Majors.
You can find the zoom recording of this session here.Check your email for the same title as this to be able to access a PDF version of the slides, as well as a copy of our basic cover letter & resume template (look for “Violet Gold”).
The CC@E also provides a full suite of services, from resume feedback to professional development, so we recommend connecting with them for all of your career questions and preparation.
- UW Career and Internship Center: From resume workshops to interview best practices, UWC&IC has a number of workshops leading up to the Career Fair to help you prepare.
As always, please let us know if you have any questions and if you are looking to speak with a company that does not have sessions available on Handshake, let us know so we can reach out to them on your behalf.
