From the Internal Revenue Service to Parrot Cellular, the Career Fair provided various career opportunities for students to consider on Wednesday and Thursday in the Union ballroom.

More than 52 different employers were present at the two-day event.

“It gives me more to see with all these companies here,” said business major Amandeep Sangha.

Director of The Career Center Marilyn Albert said over 1,300 students attended Wednesday, the first day of the event, and the same participation was expected for Thursday.

While some employers are prepared to hire without delay, getting a job could be a long and stagnant process.

“Some students are not quite ready,” said Jennifer Haslet, a representative from Novato Community Hospital, who was recruiting future nurses. There is a high demand for nurses, Haslet said. However, some students would need to relocate and gain experience to enter that type of work. Haslet also said the hospital she represents also has entry-level jobs dealing with clerkship.

Career Event Specialist Sherene Sasser said freshmen attend the event, as well as seniors.

Albert said each booth comes with a fee, which covers the expenses to run the two-day event. All of the interested employers could be accommodated in the ballroom.

Sangha, who said he hopes to enter the business field, walked away with pamphlets and information from the IRS table.

“These days you need a lot of experience,” Sangha said.
