The Career Learning and Development team is pleased to announce the return of Employer Connect. Join this Career Fair style event and meet with 30-40 actively hiring employer exhibitors representing a breadth of sectors. These employers will be offering part-time opportunities that can harmonize with students' academic pursuits, work-integrated learning opportunities (co-op, internship, and field practice), as well as long-term career opportunities for post-graduation journeys. The event will encompass more than the mere notion of 'jobs'. Students will have the opportunity to forge connections, develop professional relationships, and cultivate networks.

This is a drop-in style event. No registration is required, all RRU students and alumni are welcome.
