The 65,000 students enrolled at ACI’s 24 liberal arts-based colleges and universities are the promising prospects Illinois needs to build at 21st century workforce. ACI brings employers and students together for our first-ever Career and Internship Fair, Friday, March 23, 2018, at North Central College, Naperville, Illinois.
This exciting full-day event offers employers and students opportunities to meet and interact in formal and informal settings — and to match the right job or internship with the right student. ACI’s Career and Internship Fair includes:
- Employer “Expos” — morning and afternoon exhibit sessions that showcase employers to prospects and prospects to employers. Businesses that participate as “Premium” partners can schedule interviews with prospects they select in advance.
- Career Development Luncheon, sponsored by TTX Company — employers, students and career-services professionals sit shoulder-to-shoulder to explore the challenges and opportunities of worklife and learn first-hand about the benefits liberal arts graduates bring to the workplace.
- Networking Lounge – Employers and prospects can chat with prospects in an informal, relationship-building environment.
- Skill-Building Sessions – With sponsorship from GROWMARK, Inc., Financial Services Pipeline Initiative and other employers, students can acquire skills that help them map their careers and prepare for success.
Employers can choose from a variety of Career Fair sponsorship and partnership opportunities that boost visibility with prospects and offer benefits commensurate with the investment. Employers must purchase booth space before registration is complete. Firms may co-sponsor the Career Development Luncheon, Networking Lounge or Skill-Building Workshops, or participate as an Employer Partner, with added Premium Partnership benefits that include on-site prospect interviews. ACI can customize a partnership that best meets employers’ needs and achieves recruitment objectives.
