USA – United Business Media is continuing its support of virtual events with a new partnership for an interactive virtual career fair.
Unicruit, an event run by UBM subsidiary UBM Studios, has partnered with the Big East Career Consortium for The Big East Virtual Career Fair, a 3D online fair that takes place on 10 November 2010 aimed at the students of 16 colleges and universities that comprises the Big East Career Consortium.
UBM Studios' Unicruit is a university-centric job fair in which universities help students find work with corporations.
"Imagine being able to recruit at 16 campuses in one day. Now imagine being able to do so without spending one dime on airplanes, rental cars, or hotels. What would that do to your bottom line, your work/life balance, and the environment?” said VP of business development for UBM Studios, Kevin O'Brien.
“That is exactly what the employers who participate in this revolutionary approach to recruiting college talent will be able to achieve.”
The online fair gives employers an opportunity to showcase their organisations to thousands of students and alumni. Each employer will have a customised virtual booth that will include branding, videos, presentations, job postings, chat, resume exchange, and video interviewing.
