FIU Career Fair, All Majors
Florida International University (FIU)
Career Fair is one of the biggest career-related events in the region. On the Modesto A. Maidique Campus alone, we regularly introduce over 130 employers to nearly 1,500 of our students and alumni. Employers comprise private industry; public, educational, and non-profit organizations; local government, the federal government, law enforcement, and military.
Career Fair is open only to FIU students and alumni, and is free of charge. Students and alumni wishing to attend Career Fair DO NOT need to register to do so. However, in order to attend students and alumni must wear professional attire, be able to submit one copy of their resume and have a Panther ID.
