2022 Virtual Design Career Fair

Mark your calendar and save the date for this exciting fair specifically for students interested in careers in the design fields!

Information for Employers: Employer registration is now open for this fair focusing on students from the Weitzman School of Design.

Information for Students and Alumni: Student and alumni registration begins at 6pm EST on Thursday, February 17, 2022. Register through Handshake.

Weitzman School of Design students and alumni will have the opportunity to upload their resumes prior to the career fair, and these will be shared with all employers 7-10 days prior to the virtual career fair. This provides employers with the opportunity to reach out to students directly if they choose to do so. This is an extra opportunity, and does not take the place of applying for specific positions at organizations that you are interested in. Resumes uploaded for the resume books will be viewed by any employer that has registered for this event. The deadline for submitting your resume is 4pm EST on Monday, February 14, 2022. If you run into any challenges with submitting your resume, please reach out to us: Marianne Lipa (mlipa@upenn.edu) or Lisa Giang (lgiang@upenn.edu). To upload your resume, please select the link here that reflects your career goals, and your interest in full-time or internship opportunities. The resume book is for RESUMES ONLY, please do not upload portfolios. Documents other than resumes may be removed from the book before they are sent to employers:

Please note that career fairs are open to the students and alumni served by the Career Services office. Students in online degree programs may attend fairs hosted by their program only. The Design Career Fair will be held virtually using the Handshake platform. (Students can learn more about the virtual platform here. Employers can learn more here.)
