CEDARVILLE – Cedarville University will host a career fair with nearly 100 companies from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. March 16. The fair will be held at the university’s Doden Field House.

The career fair is free and open to the public. Employers wishing to attend can register at cedarville.edu/career. Students and the general public can register for the event at the door, but are also encouraged to preregister by emailing [email protected].

According to Cedarville University Director of Career Services Jeff Reep, representatives from 92 companies are expected to attend. Some of the nation’s top companies, including Cummins, Honda, LexisNexis, Northwestern Mutual, Reynolds & Reynolds, Rite-Aid, Speedway and Walgreens will seek future employees.

Additionally, representatives from the FBI, the Ohio Attorney General’s Office and the Ohio State Patrol are slated to attend, as are recruiters from the US Army, Navy and Marines. There will also be a variety of ministry organizations and graduate schools on hand.

“It’s becoming harder and harder to find opportunities to interact with representatives from a company with so much of the hiring process being done online,” said Reep. “This is a great opportunity for our students and individuals from the community to meet and interact with a large number of organizations in one location.”
