Education Job Fair
The Education Job Fair provides an opportunity for students to connect with employers seeking to fill education-related full-time, part-time, and internship positions. This fair is open to undergraduates, graduating seniors, graduate students, alumni, and non-NIU candidates.
The fair is free for candidates to attend. Candidates do not need to pre-register. For helpful tips to prepare to attend the Fair and a list of registered employers: visit www.gethired.niu.edu or email careerservices@niu.edu.

When it’s your turn to video chat with an employer, you will see an alert pop up on the screen requesting you to “Join Chat”.
