Career Fair to host

social justice organizations
Myriad environmental advocacy, political activism and humanitarian groups will search for recruits today from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the EMU Ballroom.
“The Humanity and Environment Career Fair,” organized by the University Career Center, features 46 organizations offering internships and job opportunities to college students. The employers’ specific locations can be found in the Career Fair program in the Emerald. The program also offers tips on dress and etiquette.
The Career Center recommends that if students participate, they should bring 10 to 15 copies of their most recent résumé and target four to seven companies they want to work for most. Students should begin with companies lower on their priority list at first to work out the rough edges in interviewing before talking with companies they most want to join.
More information can be found at the Career Center Web site at www.uocareer.uoregon.edu.
