Prior to Career Fair Week

The two main features students and recruiters will utilize during the virtual career fairs are the drop-in video chat rooms and the one-on-one appointment schedules.

Drop-In Video Chat Room: Each company has ONE drop in video chat room. This can be accessed by multiple recruiters and up to fifty students at a time. This is a great place for students to pop in and introduce themselves, ask basic questions and get to know the company. If you want to get familiar with the drop-in video chat room now, click here.

Appointment Schedules: Each company has access to one-on-one appointment schedules during the duration of the virtual career fairs. These appointments should act as a replacement of the physical handshake and interaction at the in-person event.

• Appointment schedules consist of short timeslots where students can visit one-on-one with a recruiter, briefly discuss their resume and the opportunities available within the company.


• Students can sign up for appointments before and during the virtual career fairs.


• Keep in mind, they should not be managed as an interview, but as informal and casual opportunities to connect with students.
