Also scheduled for 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. Wednesday, March 26, is the annual Cyber Forensic and Cybersecurity Career Fair in the Don Morris Room of the Memorial Student Center.
Jennifer Brown, assistant director of career education, said attending career fairs is important because it provides valuable opportunities for networking, learning and advancing your career.
“These events allow you to connect directly with employers and industry professionals, giving you the chance to make a strong first impression and showcase your skills and interests,” Brown said. “By engaging in conversations with recruiters, you can gain insights into company cultures, job openings, and the qualities they seek in candidates, which helps you better understand how to position yourself in the job market.”
