Sponsored by RUTGERS CAREER SERVICES
The largest college recruitment program in the state brings together New Jersey area employers with college students and graduates seeking employment. Experienced candidates are also welcome to attend.
About 150 employers will have current and anticipated openings in most career fields and academic majors, including liberal arts, business, science and technical areas. (Some careers are generally not represented, such as education, advertising, public relations and the media.)
Open to students and graduates from any college or university, all degree levels and majors, who wish to work in New Jersey. Resume submission is not required to attend the event, but is required to participate in the electronic resume database. Dress for interviewing and bring plenty of resumes. There is no fee.
BRING RESUMES TO GIVE TO THE EMPLOYERS.
You may attend the event without submitting your resume online. However, it is highly recommended to include your resume in the database which will be sent to each employer one week after the event.
Details about the event can be found at http://careerservices.rutgers.edu/njccdstudentjan.shtml
The event will only be cancelled if Rutgers-New Brunswick is CLOSED due to bad weather, which rarely occurs. Listen to 101.5 FM or 1450 AM, or visit www.rutgers.edu
