Seattle's Career Fair will be held at Seattle University on Wednesday, October 22, 2008 from 11am-3pm. This event will take place in the Campion Hall Building at 914 E. Jefferson Street.

To register (it's free for jobseekers), and for more details including schedule, directions, and a list of registered organizations, please go to: http://www.idealist.org/fairs and scroll down to click on "Seattle".

Please note that not all organizations at the fair will have job openings on that day. Some will have jobs, while others will have internships and volunteer opportunities.  Our nonprofit career fairs are a place for everyone who wants to make a difference in the world (including recent undergraduate or grad school students, experienced nonprofit professionals, and those wishing to transition to a nonprofit career from other sectors) and we encourage you to consider the wide range of opportunities to move forward in your nonprofit career.

This year our national series of nonprofit career fairs is generously sponsored by NYU's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service (http://wagner.nyu.edu) and also by Commongood Careers (http://www.commongoodcareers.com).

For those attending the Seattle Career Fair, take advantage of these two great FREE workshops preceding the event:
