Spring 2021
In an effort to offer in-person recruiting opportunities, the CCPD will offer Employer Connection Weeks throughout the spring 2021 semester.
- Employer Connection Weeks are small, in-person recruiting events held Monday through Thursday, with a virtual career expo taking place Friday via Handshake.
Each day of the week is designated for a certain industry and/or focus area.
In-person registration is extremely limited and social distancing will be in place. Employers are limited to one representative per company. If your company registers for an in-person event, you will be automatically be registered for the virtual career expo taking place the Friday of that week via Handshake.
NOTE: Due to course modality and the potential impacts of COVID-19 during the spring 2021 semester, the CCPD cannot guarantee the number of candidates that will attend in-person events. Know that we have partnered with faculty members in each events' focused area to advertise this event and employer representatives attending.
All in-person events are subject to virtual conversion in light of COVID-19. Event day and times will remain the same but will transition to a virtual modality. The CCPD will inform employers immediately should this be the case.
