RIT sponsors a University-Wide Career Fair every fall and spring. This popular fair is open to all RIT students and alumni seeking co-op and full-time opportunities. Students can now meet with a wide variety of employers through a hybrid of in-person and virtual career fairs every semester.

All employer partners must show proof of vaccination in order to participate in the spring career fair. See more information below.

As we prepare for in-person events at RIT, the health and safety of our students, staff, and employers are of the utmost importance to us. Masks will be required during in-person career fairs for both employers and students. Employers must show proof of vaccine day of the career fair. Learn more about RIT's Event Safety Guidelines.
