A group of 80 diverse organizations participated in the Spring into Success Job Fair at the USU on Thursday. The job fair, which was hosted by the Career Development Center, was open to all students and alumni. Employers such as Walt Disney, KTLA and Toyota were present.
"These companies are coming here because they are interested in CSULB students specifically," said Marcie Housley, Marketing and Events Coordinator for the Career Development Center.
Housley, who organized the event, said there is no way of knowing exactly how many students attend the job fairs because registration is not required, but they estimate nearly 1500.
With so many students it is obvious that not everyone will leave the event with a job, but Housley said there are still benefits. The job fair is a great place to practice and get connected with people you are not familiar with.
"You might walk up to an organization you're interested in and find your dream job at the next table over," said Housley.
