We would like to invite you to attend an upcoming event that will further enhance the employment and internship opportunities for our graduates. In an effort to match graduating college students with employers throughout the Greater Richmond Region, the Greater Richmond Chamber in conjunction with the area’s nine colleges and universities and the Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges will host a College to Career Fair. The fair is focused on matching students with two year and four year degrees from across the region with employers. It is estimated that approximately 100 Chamber member companies will participate. These companies will represent Fortune 500 to medium size corporations. The College to Career Fair will target graduating seniors and recent graduates. The total number of students expected to attend is approximately 1,600.
Elements of the Career Fair will include an advance online resume posting system to allow students the opportunity to submit resumes prior to meeting with employers at the fair. Employers will be able to access student resumes and have the ability to e-mail them prior to the show. A guide book will be published and available at the fair listing all jobs available by the various employers participating in the career fair. The booklet will also include a short article and helpful hints on crafting a resume, preparing for an interview and how to write a cover letter.
Space at the College to Career Fair is limited, so early registration is recommended. The cost for employers to attend the fair includes:
10’ x 8 ’ exhibit space includes pipe and drape back and side walls
