Career Showcase is a three-day event that brings together students and employers for in-person networking and recruiting. Each day is streamlined towards professions in different areas with day one as non-technically focused, including business, non-profits, government, social services, hospitality, retail, etc., and day two is focused on careers in technical fields, engineering, I.T., healthcare, construction, and more. Over 7,000 students attended Career Week to network with over 300 employers.
