UA Career Center to Sponsor Fall Career Fair

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Students, alumni and employers will meet and greet each other during the 2003 Fall Career Fair at The University of Alabama. This year’s event will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 24, from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. in the Bryant Conference Center.

Organizations with full-time, part-time and internship opportunities will be participating. All majors are welcome. The UA Career Center encourages students and alumni to dress professionally and to bring résumés. Students also need to bring their student ID.

To help students learn how to utilize the professional connections made at the fair, the Career Center will be offering “Networking at the Career Fair” workshops. The workshops are scheduled for Sept. 17 at noon in 13 Bidgood, Sept. 18 at noon in the Ferguson Mortar Board room, and Sept. 22 at 5:30 p.m. in the Ferguson Forum.

The UA Career Center’s Fall Career Fair provides employers with the opportunity to market their organizations on campus and to identify future employees. It is also an excellent opportunity for students and alumni to discover employment positions available across the Southeast and the nation. Many students who are interested in learning more about specific organizations and possible career tracks can take advantage of the chance to network with company representatives.
