UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Spring Career Days returns to the Bryce Jordan Center this February with more than 350 employers available to speak with students.

A variety of fields and industries will be represented at Spring Career Days, which takes place Feb. 21 to 23. The fair is a partnership between Career Services and the College of Arts and Architecture’s Stuckeman School.

“We are pleased to have our employers back on campus for Spring Career Days,” said Ashley Citarella, the associate director of operations, programs and events at Career Services. “This will allow students to come and take advantage of the meaningful connections that are available at Spring Career Days under one roof.”

The Career Fair takes place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Feb. 21 and 22 in the Bryce Jordan Center. Feb. 21 is the non-technical day and Feb. 22 is technical. Both internships and full-time jobs will be available.

Interviews with employers will take place on Feb. 22 and 23 in the Bank of America Career Services Center at times that are convenient for employers and students.

In collaboration with the College of Arts and Architecture, Spring Career Days also will offer a Stuckeman School Career Day in the Bryce Jordan Center on Feb. 21. This will provide students an opportunity to meet with employers with jobs and internships in architecture, landscape architecture, and graphic design.

Career Services will offer professional headshots and blazers and ties from its Professional Attire Closet at the Bryce Jordan Center on Feb. 21 and 22. Career coaches will be present to provide students with advice and guidance.

Leading up to the Career Fair, students can visit the Bank of America Career Services Center for drop-in consultations, counseling appointments and mock interviews. More information about these opportunities is available on the Career Services website

Career Services encourages students of all majors and levels of education to attend Spring Career Days.

“Go in with confidence in who you are and what you have to offer,” Citarella said. “At the end of the day, employers are people like all of us. They want to have genuine conversations and are eager to hire Penn State talent.”
