What is a Reverse Career Fair?
Employers consistently ask for exposure to Marquette University student organizations and access to student leaders.  A Reverse Career Fair is an excellent opportunity for student leaders to showcase their professional skills and the values and skills gained as a result of being involved in student organizations.

In a typical career fair, employers set up booths and students walk around to meet with recruiters representing each company. With a Reverse Career Fair we turn the tables and have student organizations set up booths and the recruiters are the ones who walk around to meet with students representing each group. Employers will approach tables to network with students and possibly gain an invitation to come speak to the group as a whole on a separate date.

Registration Fee: In its inaugural year, there will be no fee for companies or student organizations.

Registration is required.
