Brock University’s Experience Expo will give students the opportunity to speak with 70 employers providing countless co-op, full-time, part-time and seasonal job opportunities. 

On Jan. 28, Brock is hosting their Experience Expo, an on-campus recruitment event that will facilitate networking between Brock students and their potential employers. 

The Expo will occur in the Ian D. Beddis gym between 11:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., hosting employers seeking a diverse range of employees in all stages of their education. 

Employers will be looking for students to fill a range of positions, including full-time jobs for new graduates, co-op opportunities, part-time employment and summer jobs. 

As dozens of employers will be attending the event, Brock’s Experience Expo is also an opportunity for students to network with potential employers across several industries. Experience Expo is Brock’s largest on-campus recruitment event, so there will be countless industry connections for students to explore. 

The employers include school boards, local businesses, municipal governments, Brock University itself and many more. 

Brock’s Co-op, Career and Experiential Education team will be available during the event to lead students through their job search efforts if needed.  

Students will have access to an on-site photobooth to take professional headshots to add to their resumes. If students are feeling unsure about the quality of their resumes and cover letters, Brock’s Career Education Team will also be attending the Expo to conduct resume reviews to ensure students are approaching potential employers as prepared as possible. 

As spots for the Experience Expo are limited, students are encouraged to RSVP as soon as possible by logging into CareerZone and registering through the Experience Expo event page or ExperienceBU.
