On Thursday, Oct. 22, 69 employers were on hand for the Rosen College of Hospitality Management Fall 2015 Career & Experiential Learning Fair. Over 780 students had the opportunity to meet face-to-face with representatives from top hospitality and tourism companies to learn about full-time, part-time and internship opportunities.

In addition to meeting employers, students could visit the Career Fair Ready Room to get advice from UCF alumni, check their appearance, practice their elevator speech and take a professional photo for LinkedIn.

Rosen College students plan and execute the Career Fair every semester as part of a class project, handling every aspect of the event, including the theme, decor, marketing, promotion and lunch menu. The Fall 2015 Career Fair theme was inspired by The Beatles, anchored by the tagline, “Imagine All the Possibilities,” encouraging students to dream big about their futures and pursue their career goals.
