In appreciation for the continued commitment of employers to recruit Redbirds for their open positions, Career Services is providing a special multi-fair discount on career fair registration this year.

Organizations that register for two or more career fairs will receive a 20% discount on the total cost of all fairs for the semester combined.

The multi-fair discount provides value to employers and students alike. “The discount provides employers many more opportunities to connect with Redbirds,” states Career Services Associate Director Natalie R. Alexander. “In addition, because of the discount and employers participating in more recruiting activities, Redbirds have more opportunities to connect with employers from varying career industries.”
