Purdue, IU sponsoring state job fair April 7

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Recent and soon-to-be college graduates can register for the 10th Annual Indiana Collegiate Job Fair on Friday, April 7, at the Indiana Convention Center, Indianapolis.

Purdue and Indiana universities co-sponsor the event, which is open to all job seekers. Last year approximately 100 companies had representatives at the job fair.

The 2000 job fair again will offer the Resume Link interactive database. Candidates will submit a resume at the fair to be scanned into the database. Employers will be able to search the resumes, and candidates will be able to follow up with employers even if they did not meet face-to-face.

Job seekers can register at the door the day of the event for $10.

More information is available at the Indiana Collegiate Job Fair Web site, or from the Purdue Center for Career Opportunities, (765) 494-3981.
