Ithaca College students have already submitted 509 applications to interview for job & internship opportunities at this January's Career & Internship Connection job fairs. Did you apply?

New employers have registered for the fairs, so even if you missed the original deadline, register now for the CIC fairs to find out which employers will be there, what new postings exist, and to receive e-mail updates about the fairs.

The morning is an open job fair, and the afternoon is dedicated to interviews. So if you don't get selected for an interview, or didn't submit your application in time, you should still attend the morning fair as employers may grant interviews to students that they meet there!

CIC Schedule:

Chicago - January 3rd

Washington, D.C. - January 4th

Boston - January 7th

New York City - January 9th

San Francisco - January 11th
