Last week, I attended the science and engineering career fair at USC. This event was very important to me because as a December graduate, I am on the hunt for a job. This event gave me the opportunity to talk with recruiters and potential employers, specifically looking for students in my field. Not only was I able to speak with representatives from major companies, but I got to give them my resume and exchange contact information. Some of the companies that I spoke with include Blue Cross Blue Shield of SC, Spawar, CGI, Duke Energy, and Safe Systems. All of these are great companies that I wouldn't mind working for in the future. I am very happy to have had this opportunity and I have already followed up with some of the recruiters. There will be other career fairs hosted this semester, and I encourage any students who are interested in finding a job, or who just want to gain experience and network opportunities to attend. Below is a video from a career fair that was hosted last semester, Spring 2012. As you can see from the positive feedback, students are very excited about the opportunity to meet and talk with employers.
