At this point in the academic year, you are likely well aware that our annual Fall Career Fair is fast approaching- and this one is set to be the best yet! Taking place in the new Bentley Arena, we have over 130 fantastic companies attending and all want to meet YOU.
So where should one begin when preparing to attending a major networking event? Step #1: Research who is attending! Lucky for you, we’ve compiled all the data you need to plan ahead into one easy to use app: The Fairs App. Simply download and search for Bentley University and you will see who is attending and for which specific opportunity. But perhaps this full list is overwhelming- how can we narrow in on who you should meet during the event?
Below is a list of employers relevant to students seeking opportunities in the following spaces: Sustainability, Healthcare, Non-Profit, Government Agencies, Hospitality, Media, Global Organizations, Employers with great Leadership Development Opportunities, and more! I encourage you to network with recruiters and learn more about their internship and entry level roles- this will give you great insight into the organization.
