Professional and Technical Career Fair

Employers may conduct post-fair, in-person interviews on site on the Friday of career fair week. Interviews will take place in the Campus Recreation Center gymnasium from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

We will provide blank interview schedules at employer check-in. Each two-part form is pre-printed with 30-minute interview slots. Some recruiters like to fill in their interview schedule(s) as the day goes on; others prefer to contact their top candidates immediately following the fair to schedule interviews. Either way, it is your responsibility to contact candidates directly to schedule interviews with them. Remind them that the interview will take place on the lower level of the Campus Recreation Center and to arrive at least 15 minutes early.

We ask that you turn in the yellow copy of your interview schedule(s) to us for our records.

We ask that you conclude all interviews no later than 3 p.m., as we start breaking down the room at that time.

We provide free parking at the Cincinnati Zoo South Lot with free continuous shuttle service to and from campus.
