As the #5 Hospitality Program in the United States, we are so excited to host yet another Destinations Career Fair!
Our Destinations Career Fair spans three days with a number of opportunities to meet with students and share your company information. The Career Fair will be held February 18, 2021 on Brazen from 10 am- 2 pm. The first evening (Wednesday, February 17th) begins with a virtual reception beginning at 6pm and panel discussions at 7:00 pm on Zoom. The panel discussions will be organized by areas of interest and allows students and recruiters the opportunity to network together in a more intimate environment. Lastly, there is time available for recruiters to set aside for virtual interviews on Friday, February 19th. Both the panel discussions and interviews are optional to recruiters. Recruiters and students in years past have had significant success with our events. We would love to have you join us (virtually) this year!

Career Fair
Thursday, February 18th, 2021 | Time 10AM-2PM | Brazen
The Career Fair will be held through Brazen, a virtual platform which allows students to interact with companies via either text chats and/or 1-1 video chats. Please prepare for both, as it is up to the employer which form of chat they utilize. Companies attending for the first time will be asked to attend a short discussion about the program and the Department Field Study/Internship requirements.
Interviews

We encourage you to set aside time for virtual interviews through Zoom following the Career Fair.
