Event Description

This job fair is co-hosted by Harvard Fellows and co-organized by MIT, Yale, Stanford, Princeton, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, Dartmouth, and Johns Hopkins, and is the largest joint online recruitment event for top universities in North America.

The job fair aims to provide many job opportunities for students at top schools in North America and to build a bridge between outstanding overseas students and companies.

The event will provide a real-time interactive platform for job seekers and companies to communicate with each other online, allowing companies to publicize their latest job openings and upcoming events, and to further understand the needs of job seekers and harvest quality talent.

The event is divided into two parts: (1) some companies (with a limited number of spots) can choose to make presentations for about 20 minutes, which job seekers can watch live through ZOOM; (2) we provide a virtual booth for each company, and job seekers can choose their own booth online and open a video or voice to communicate with company representatives during the event.
