Hello CEE students,
The College of Built Environments is hosting a career fair on February 19th and 20th. If this is an area you are interested in or if there are any employers on the list you want to connect with, please consider attending. More information is below.
————————————————————————————————————-
The 2025 Career Fair will be both in-person and virtual with Handshake. We look forward to hosting students, alumni, non-profits, and firms to this hybrid event.
Wednesday, February 19, 2025, IN PERSON, 10:30 am – 2:00 pm
Gould Hall, First Floor Court, 3950 University Way, Seattle, WA 98105
No student registration required: students just show up!
Thursday, February 20, 2025, VIRTUAL, 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
The virtual fair is free to government/non-profits so the feel of this day will be a bit different. All firms that participate in the Wednesday in-person career fair will have complimentary access to Thursday’s virtual fair as well for conversations in a quieter environment. The Handshake platform hosts both 30-minute information sessions and 15-minute 1:1 sessions with students which is a great opportunity to follow up with firms you met the day before.
Handshake Registration for Students
You need to have your account created prior to the virtual event so you can book your meeting. Firms might cancel scheduled events if students don’t sign up early. Representatives that attend the in-person fair might not be the same representatives at the virtual fair. Continue reading
