The Western Illinois (WIU) University Career Center will host a Quad Cities College Career Expo along with Augustana College, Black Hawk College, St. Ambrose University and Eastern Iowa Community Colleges, from 1-4 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 25, at The Bend Event Center in East Moline.
“Career fairs provide invaluable opportunities for our students to connect with potential employers,” WIU Center for Career Preparation and Employer Engagement Mandi McRaven said.
“With networking being an essential component of securing internships and job placements, every student should consider attending this fair. The Quad Cities Career Expo stands out as a premier event for our region, featuring over 100 employers across various industries.”
The event is open to all students and alumni of the sponsoring schools as well as other community members who are college graduates or currently enrolled in a degree program. More than 125 employers from the Quad Cities area and several regional graduate school programs will attend.
To encourage student participation, WIU is offering a limited number of shuttle seats from its main Macomb campus to the expo center.
