About the Career Fairs
Career fairs held in winter and spring
quarters are major recruitment events at Western Washington University.
These fairs are terrific opportunities to identify candidates for open
positions as well as interact with and educate students about future career
paths within your company. These events are advertised campus-wide and
open to all WWU students and alumni. Students value this event and will
benefit greatly from your participation -- over 1,000 job seekers have been
attending each fair! We anticipate that approximately 90 employers will
participate in each event. Register early as space is limited and we
always fill before the deadlines!

Amenities
Each
fair is located in the Viking Union Multi-Purpose Room of the student union --
a lovely room overlooking Bellingham Bay! At the fair we will provide
signage and a 3' x 6' table. Because of space limitations, we ask that
employers use only tabletop displays rather than large backdrops. Morning
refreshments are available in a convenient hospitality room and box lunches are
distributed to individual company tables. Career Services will also make
arrangements to schedule rooms for interviews following the events.

Promotion
Your
company or organization will be included in our pre-event publicity and a
Directory of Employers provided to students attending the fair. You will
also have an opportunity to place an ad in the career fair section of the
Western Front student newspaper. To further promote your company, we
suggest you donate something for a door prize!

Parking
Upon confirmation of attendance (approximately three weeks prior to the event),
the Career Services Center will send you a confirmation email and map
identifying your parking location.

Lodging

Event Confirmation
Confirmation
packets will be sent approximately three weeks prior to the event (payment
needs to be received prior to confirmation).
The Career Services Center may need to
be selective when determining which employers are represented at special events
such as career fairs. Decisions will be made in a fair and equitable
manner after considering factors such as space availability, student interest
in employer/industry, industry balance and employer position within its
industry.
