PICKENS COUNTY — Clemson’s Fall Career Fair will be held in Littlejohn Coliseum from Monday, Sept. 22 through Thursday, Sept. 25 between noon and 4 p.m each day, providing students with the opportunity to meet and engage with 430 different employers. Last year’s Fall Career Fair saw over 5,000 student attendees, all of whom built important connections and gained valuable professional experience.
The first three days of the event will be STEM focused, featuring representatives from industries such as technology, manufacturing, engineering and sciences. The final day will be geared towards students seeking work in the business, social sciences, humanities and education fields.
Leading up to and during the event, Clemson’s Center for Career and Professional Development (CCPD) is facilitating a number of workshops and opportunities for students. On Sunday, Sept. 21, the JCPenney Suit-Up event takes place from 5-8 p.m at the Anderson Mall, giving students the chance to secure a 50% discount on professional attire and accessories. Additionally, CCPD has organized a series of virtual information sessions throughout the week with major companies such as Wells Fargo, Dell and Dominion Energy. Specific times and sign-ups for these meetings can be found at the link below.
Due to construction, students will now enter Littlejohn Coliseum on the west side through the Burton Galley. Interviews with prospective employers are scheduled following the conclusion of the fair. More information is available at the CCPD website.
