HAMMOND – Southeastern Louisiana University students and alumni are invited to participate in Career Fair 2022, the annual university‑wide event hosted by the Office of Career Services.
Held as a benefit exclusively for Southeastern students and alumni, Career Fair 2022 will include over 150 organizational participants and will be held Thursday, Sept. 29, from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. in the Pennington Student Activity Center on the corner of University Avenue and General Pershing.
Representatives from various companies and associations, government agencies, business, engineering, finance and banking industries will be on site to answer questions and take resumes during the free event.
“Career Fair provides Southeastern students and graduates the opportunity to obtain that much needed face time with recruiters to set themselves apart from the rest of the pack and all of those faceless resumes that come their way,” said Ken Ridgedell, director of Career Services. “There is no other venue that allows direct interaction with recruiters and managers from over 150 employers and leaves a lasting, positive impression. In fact, it would take months to speak with as many recruiters as you can in one day at Southeastern’s Career Fair 2022.”
To get the most out of the fair, Ridgedell said students and alumni should bring copies of their resumes; be prepared to briefly discuss career interests, goals, knowledge and skills; and collect brochures and business cards.
