Signs and Displays: The Career Services Office will have laminated signs with your organization’s name at your assigned table, however, feel free to bring any additional sign/display materials that will easily fit on your assigned table. All tables will be 5 feet long and covered a linen table cloth. (If the display items require more space, please contact the Career Services Office immediately to make arrangements).

Delivering Your Materials on the Day of the Career Fair: If you plan to bring your materials with you on the day of the fair, please be sure any and all materials can enter through the Monument Street entrance. At this location, everyone enters through a revolving glass door and if your materials cannot fit through this entrance, you will need to enter through a different entrance (per school security policy). We will have volunteers stationed near the Monument St. entrance to assist you with your materials if needed.

Shipping Your Materials Ahead of Time: If you would like to have your materials shipped before the Career Fair, the Career Services Office will gladly store them beforehand (additionally, we will place these materials at your assigned table before the fair).

Returning Materials After the Career Fair: If you plan to send company/agency mailed materials/displays to the Career Services Office, please ensure that you make arrangements to have them returned to your agency.
