  A couple quick reminders…

  1. The Harbert College of Business Career Fairs will be held in Horton Hardgrave Hall, next door to Lowder Hall. Please pay close attention to the location and parking information included below.

• Career Fair Plus App

  We are excited to partner with Career Fair Plus to offer the Career Fair + App feature for employers and students. You will also receive an email from Career Fair Plus with similar information. You can download the app in the app store (iOS, Android). Search “Career Fair Plus” in the app store.

  The app will allow students to research all registered companies prior to the fair and includes an interactive map to direct them to your booth. Students can filter based on their majors, job type, location, etc. Employer information is uploaded into the app directly from your Handshake registration.

  Please ensure you include as much information about your organization as possible via Handshake so that it will be included on your employer page in the app.

  Another exciting feature is the “Resume Drop”. This feature allows students to submit their resume in the app to specific companies before, during, and after the fair. You will be able to download the resumes into an online portal.

  You may request a recorded webinar or ask any of your questions at support@careerfairplus.com.
