Join UNH Career and Professional Success (CaPS) for our Fall 2020 Virtual Career & Internship Fair! With a growing list of employers from all industries and sectors looking to meet students like you, get on the path to lifelong success by engaging and building connections with recruiting partners around the country.

All classes, from first-year students to seniors and graduate students, are encouraged to register for the fair. With the new virtual format this fall, you will be able to:

• Meet with employers​. ​Interact with recruiters through video, audio, or chat.
• Discover new career opportunities. Get personalized recommendations based on your Handshake profile for which employers to connect with.
• Never wait in line, ever​. ​Pre-schedule 1:1 or group sessions with employers you’re interested in, or join an open session on the day-of the fair.
• Make an impression​. ​Bring your unique perspective to the table, ​ask great questions, and follow up with recruiters after the fair​.

We know this is might be your first virtual fair experience and you might be unsure how to prepare. We’ve put together a number of resources linked below, and you are encouraged to schedule a counseling appointment with your college’s CaPS team, or attend Career Drop-In Hours, or chat live with CaPS staff and student ambassadors will be available from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, Monday - Thursday on our website, unh.edu/career.
