Sign Up for a Table at the Diversity Career Fair

Join other Twin Cities colleges and units in the first Diversity Career Fair organized by the OHR'S Talent Acquisition team. The fair will be held on Thursday, May 30, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m, at the McNamara Alumni Center. Twin Cities colleges, units, and departments are invited to host tables at the fair, which will be advertised widely throughout the Twin Cities metro area.

This fair will be an opportunity for job seekers to learn more about the broad array of full- and part-time jobs available at the University, from researchers to finance professionals to maintenance workers. This fair is a great venue to promote your college or unit work environment to diverse job seekers, even if you do not have many jobs open on May 30.

If you would like to participate, please reach out to your HR Lead to learn more. Signing up is free and commits you to at least one table at the event. You can also request multiple tables for multiple departments. A total of 50 tables will be available–claim your free table(s) now while space is available! Reservations are due April 30.
