Each fall the Center for Community Service and Justice (CCSJ) partners with the Career Center to invite representatives of non-profit organizations and volunteer programs to campus for a career fair. The Fair offers graduating students a great opportunity to meet with the organizations that offer a wide variety of opportunities to servein the U.S and abroad. Every year, more than 30 representatives of the organizations participate in this Fair. For two and half hours around lunchtime, these representatives are on hand to discuss available volunteer opportunities and/ or permanent employment opportunities in the non-profit organization.
NOTE: "volunteer" usually means that you are living in a community of fellow workers and are provided with health insurance, room, meals and a small stipend.
This year the fair is scheduled for Wednesday, October 31, 2012 at 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. in McGuire Hall, Andrew White Student Center of Loyola University Maryland.
