Career Services, within the Division of Student Affairs, will host its annual Local Internship Fair in the Panasci Lounge in Schine Student Center on Wednesday, Sept. 18, from 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Representatives from more than 90 organizations from the Central New York area will attend and offer students internship opportunities.
Supporting the University’s vision of strengthening ties with the surrounding community, the Local Internship Fair helps students identify and pursue internship opportunities in Central New York. Employers from a wide variety of industries will be represented, seeking interns for the fall, spring and summer.
In its fifth year, the Local Internship Fair has facilitated many successful connections between employers and interns. More than 400 students attended the event last fall. Career Services has also welcomed several new employers this year.
Some of the participates at the Local Internship Fair include Aflac, CNY Latino, JetBlue, Iberdrola, MedTech, NewsChannel 9 WSYR, Onondaga County Sheriff’s Office, Syracuse Crunch, Syracuse Peace Council and the Events Company. Students of all majors are encouraged to attend, to bring copies of their resume and to dress professionally.
