Message from our UMN Student Chapter:
I am excited to announce registration for the ASCE virtual career fair is now LIVE! As in the past, this career fair is geared toward the recruitment of the talented civil, environmental, and geo-engineering students at the University of Minnesota. With the virtual format this year, we also plan to invite students from the University of St. Thomas to attend which will further expand the application pool.
The fair will be held (virtually) on Tuesday, November 3rd from 10:00am to 4:00pm. We will be utilizing GoldPASS powered by Handshake for registration and the Career Fair Plus (https://www.careerfairplus.com) platform for the fair itself. Our fair will largely follow the same process as the Fall College of Science and Engineering's (CSE) Career Fair.
Please Note: In order to view the fair and register on GoldPASS you must have a handshake account.
The registration fee for the ASCE Career Fair has been reduced by half to only $175 per company. We are accepting payment via credit card or check. Refunds for cancellation will be issued through October 16th. This deadline and other critical dates are summarized at the bottom of this email.
Some of you may be aware of how Career Fair Plus works from participating in the CSE Fall Virtual Fair, but in order to ensure everyone is on the same page we will be providing detailed instructions and further communications as we continue with the virtual fair process. Please register for the ASCE fair at your earliest convenience to ensure you receive further communications and instructions regarding the fair.
This is a new process for everyone: the organizers, the employers, and the students. But I am trying hard to make sure instructions are clear and simple to follow. Career Fair Plus is a fantastic platform that if utilized properly can make things easier for employers and students alike and I appreciate your flexibility as we work out all of the details. Please reach out to me directly at sailo011@umn.edu if you have questions or concerns at any point.
Thank you all for your continued dedication to working with our CEGE students, we appreciate it greatly!
