Advertising positions: The Career and Internship Fair is an event in which students learn about full-time and internship opportunities. If your organization is not offering one or both of these types of positions, please post your available positions on Handshake and consider connecting with students in other ways.

The following types of organizations are limited to participation on a waiting-list basis; if space is available after a fair or event registration deadline has been reached, organizations representing any of the following categories may be permitted to participate in the event.

• Employers offering commission-only based positions.
• Graduate School programs. 
• Employers sponsoring an individual to set up his/her own business for the purpose of selling products or services and/or recruiting other individuals to set up their own business.
• Employers requiring an initial investment from this individual, with the organization itself serving as an umbrella or parent corporation. The initial investment may be direct payment of a fixed fee, payment to attend an orientation or training session, and/or purchase of a starter kit.
• Third-Party Recruiters

The Armed Forces
The Armed Forces will now recruit from the vendor tables on the main level of the University Center. This change has been implemented due to the increased demand for booths and overall space. Registration fees will be waived. However, parking and lunch are available for an additional cost.

Handshake

Please note, registering for the Career and Internship Fair begins by creating a Handshake account. You will be prompted to create your account, connect with or create your business, and then connect with UWRF. The registrant does not have to be one of the representatives attending in order to complete registration, but all representatives attending the fair will need a Handshake account in order to participate.

Inclement Weather/Campus Safety Alert Policy

1. The Career Services staff will monitor all weather/campus safety conditions and consult with university officials and civil authorities.
2. Should a weather/campus safety emergency be occurring or imminent, the Career Services staff will cancel an event if and only if the University has decided to officially close.

If the Career and Internship Fair is NOT cancelled due to inclement weather/safety concerns and still proceeds as scheduled, UWRF Career Services holds that organizations benefit from the Career and Internship Fair and its promotion even if the organization is unable to attend. In this case:

• Organizations receive exposure through the Handshake website.
