It's being held at Jersey Mike's tomorrow from 11:30-3:30.
 
This event is only open to Rutgers University (New Brunswick, Camden, Newark, and RBHS) students and alumni from all academic disciplines.
 
Am here - brought my daughter who is a grad student.

Very busy - long lines to speak with presenters.

A very varied group of employers such as Verizon and Pennsylvania state Police.

Amazed at the diversity here.
 
Is it valuable to people who are established in their careers? I'm curious if it caters more for entry level roles or if something like LinkedIn would be more valuable to someone who is experienced in their industry.

As I understand it it's for both RU students and alumni. Not sure how well it works for established professionals.

Yeah I figured it would more for students about to graduate or recent grads looking for entry level positions. I'm an RU alum but I'd be looking for mid level positions in supply chain or logistics and I don't think the career fair would help there. Maybe if I get my Master's in Supply Chain at RU there would be networking opportunities for mid-career roles or managerial positions in my industry.
