The purpose of the Part-time Job Fair is to connect currently enrolled students seeking part-time employment with both on and off-campus employers looking to hire quality applicants. Employers looking to recruit for part-time positions, as well as other opportunities such as internships, volunteer and full-time seasonal may also be highlighted. Work experience gained during college is a valuable supplement to the classroom, and can provide students with important lessons in professionalism, leadership, and responsibility. These experiences help students build their skill base, their knowledge and their resume while employers gain the benefit of qualified employees.
