Presented Virtually on Friday, October 16, 2020

The College of Business’s Annual Career Day is a much anticipated tradition at URI. Given the current climate, we have been hard a work creating an incredibly valuable virtual event.

So don’t miss this opportunity to hear from alumni and corporate partners. You will learn about different career paths; gain an understanding of what you can do with your major; get hiring tips; and get the latest updates on the current employment climate. The day will also feature a virtual career fair.

It’s easy to participate. Prior to October 16, take a look at the schedule below and decide which sessions you want to join. Then click on the Zoom link and register. On October 16, return to this website, and simply click on the Zoom link to join.
