Consider conducting your interviews on campus. We have three different interview options to help you hire your next standout employee.

Career Fair Interview Days

Accounting Panel and Career Fair Interview Day: Tuesday, September 22, 10 AM – 3 PM
Biotech Interview Day: Wednesday, October 7, 10AM - 3PM
Turn your Career Fair conversations into your next great hire. Interview Day gives employers the dedicated time and space to meet one-on-one with the talent you connected with at the Career Fair.
Simply decide how many interviews you'd like to host, extend invitations to your top candidates during the Career Fair, and let CaPS handle the rest. We'll build a tailored interview schedule that fits your needs so you can walk in ready to find your next standout hire following the fair.
Interview Days are a quick turnaround and best fit for employers who have specific roles they are looking to fill quickly and are willing to review resumes at the Career Fair before offering interviews.
Timeline:
- Meet at the Career Fair and extend invitations on the spot to interview the next day.
- The day after the Career Fair, return to campus to your dedicated interview room or host an online meeting and conduct your next-day interview.
Before the Career Fair - You’ll complete a brief survey to let us know your preferred Interview Day logistics, such as interview length, in-person o°ù virtual, and how many representatives will be attending. From there, we will book you a private room on campus, build your schedule, and provide you with in-person scheduling instructions.
During the Career Fair - When you meet a student that you'd like to speak with further, offer them an interview! Complete the interview slip with them, and we’ll collect it at the end of the day to create your schedule. &²Ô²ú²õ±è;
After the Fair - That evening, we’ll compile the signups to build your Interview Day schedule. We will email you the schedule and logistics,  along with relevant candidate information from their Handshake profiles. If we host a virtual interview, we ask that you share a link to the platform you will host the meetings on and we will share that out with students. &²Ô²ú²õ±è;
 &²Ô²ú²õ±è;
On Interview Day - Arrive at your private interview room, where our team will check-in students and be available throughout the day to support you with anything you need.  If hosting virtual interviews, students will log on with your meeting link at the scheduled time.  Let us handle the logistics so you can focus on making meaningful connections.
