Join us for our 2nd annual Job-A-Palooza event!

Employers will have the opportunity to engage with Benedictine students in a variety of ways to help develop and cultivate their career development; with the primary intent being to provide students with experiential learning opportunities (internships) and full-time employment upon graduation. Benedictine offers a wide range of majors – from Accounting to Biology, Computer Science to Psychology, Communication Arts to Engineering, Exercise and Sports Science to Public Health, and many more. We also extend invitations to our alumni who may be seeking full-time entry-level positions or to continue their career growth.

List of Academic Programs:

*Note: Employers participating in the fair must be recruiting for internship and/or full-time, degree-required positions. Part-time positions may be included as long as there is recruitment for internships and/or full-time career opportunities concurrently*
