Graduating Soon?
Individuals who are due to graduate in Dec 2024 or May/August/Dec 2025 are strongly encouraged to submit a resume (not a C.V.) using the provided link in the registration confirmation email. It's possible to submit a resume even if you are unable to attend the career fairs, as all industry partners will receive all resumes submitted. Submitting a resume is not mandatory for event registration, but it is recommended for individuals pursuing a career in industry, as it allows industry partners to track your progress over the next few years.
NOTE: You are not required to submit a resume to attend either event. If you do submit your resume, it is NOT equal to registering for the event—don’t forget to register on Handshake too! You are also highly encouraged to bring multiple copies of your resume to the in-person event.
The deadline for resume submissions is Monday, October 13th at 11:59 pm Eastern Time. It is advised to submit resumes early to account for any potential technical difficulties. Adding a resume on Handshake is also recommended, as it is a useful platform for job searching and applications at your level.
Companies participating in this event will exclusively offer internships and professional positions for Postdocs, PhDs, and Master's level students/staff. The list of attending companies may expand closer to the event date, so it's important to check back frequently for updates.
