Fall 2013 Career Fair

10am-3pm, Marshall Student Center Ballroom

The USF Career Fair is a great way to network face-to-face with local and national employers interested in hiring USF students and graduates for full-time, Co-op and internship positions. Because there are so many employers all in one place on the same day, this fair is a very efficient use of your job search time! Co-sponsored with the USF Alumni Association, the Career Fair is exclusively for USF students and alumni with valid USF ID.

Check out these videos from the Spring 2012 Career Fair and Spring 2013 Career Fair to find out more and hear first-hand success stories and tips from USF students and alumni.
