Even if you\u2019re not job hunting now or an employer you\u2019re interested in isn\u2019t hiring at the moment, understanding what\u2019s out there helps you plan ahead.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Gain insight:&nbsp;<\/strong>Discover what different organizations do, what they value in candidates, and how you might fit in now or in the future. By chatting with a range of employers you can also identify valuable hiring trends.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Grow your network:<\/strong>&nbsp;Make connections that could lead to mentorship, advice, or future opportunities. Every conversation is a step forward.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Convenient:&nbsp;<\/strong>Meet a wide range of employers that you would not normally have a chance to speak with, all without leaving campus. Drop in between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. as it fits your schedule (last check-in time is 2:45 p.m.).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have any questions about the Fall Career &amp; Networking Fair or require accommodations for a disability to attend this event, please email&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:careerfair@carleton.ca\">careerfair@carleton.ca<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For full details and to register, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/mysuccess.carleton.ca\/eventsPublic.htm?eventId=14430\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mySuccess Co-op and Career Events Calendar<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"cu_event_type":[19],"cu_event_audience":[],"class_list":["post-1582","cu_event","type-cu_event","status-publish","hentry","cu_event_type-career-fair"],"acf":{"cu_event_start_date":"2026-10-07 10:00:00","cu_event_end_date":"2026-10-07 15:00:00","cu_event_add_to_calendar":"show","cu_event_location_type":"in-person","cu_event_meeting_address_type":"on-campus","cu_event_virtual_type":"tbd","cu_event_virtual_meeting_link":"","cu_building":"AH","cu_event_meeting_room":"Ravens' Nest","cu_event_meeting_address_full":null,"cu_post_thumbnail":"","cu_event_cost":"","cu_event_registration":{"title":"","url":"https:\/\/mysuccess.carleton.ca\/eventsPublic.htm?eventId=14430","target":"_blank"},"cu_event_secondary_button":"","cu_event_contact_name":"","cu_event_email":"","cu_event_phone":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/1582","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/cu_event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/250"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/1582\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2789,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event\/1582\/revisions\/2789"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1582"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"cu_event_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_type?post=1582"},{"taxonomy":"cu_event_audience","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/carleton.ca\/career\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/cu_event_audience?post=1582"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
