WMU Career Fairs Begin Wed; Looking For Job and Intern Candidates

Western Michigan University's Spring Career Fairs begin this Wednesday (Jan. 23rd) and will continue through April 10th. The school plans to bring in "hundreds of employers" during the spring semester "to participate in career fairs and vie for candidates to fill full- and part-time jobs as well as internships and co-op positions", according to a release by the school.

No registration is necessary to attend the fairs, but there will be a check-in station at many of the events. Numerous employers will conduct next-day interviews on campus with their selected first-round candidates. - WMU
