from Career Services

Many international students studying in the United States find the search for jobs and internships to be challenging. SIUC Career Services is pleased to announce that our international students now have the opportunity to connect with interested employers through a virtual career fair just for international students.

Sponsored by the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE), the NACE International Students Virtual Career Fair is FREE and open to international students at schools that hold NACE membership who:

· wish to return to their home country for full-time or internship/co-op opportunities.
· are currently pursuing one-year Optional Practical Training (OPT) and/or long-term opportunities in the United States.
· are currently pursuing summer Curricular Practical Training (CPT) internships in the United States.

The fair opens to students on February 18 and runs through May 16. Through the fair, you’ll have access to interested employers and their full-time, internship, and co-op opportunities.
