SE Career Services welcomes 32 businesses to campus for All Majors Career Fair

A total of 32 businesses in various industries converged on the Hallie McKinney Ballroom on Wednesday for the All Majors Career Fair hosted by Southeastern Oklahoma State University Career Services.

The event was hosted in conjunction with Work Ready Durant, the local office of Work Ready Oklahoma, which focuses on empowering Oklahomans towards self-sufficiency through targeted job preparedness and skill-building workshops.

Students from all levels of university completion attended the event to network with potential employers related to their major and also explore opportunities they may not have been familiar with. Agencies from state, tribal, and federal jurisdictions, the banking and financial sector, public safety, manufacturing, construction, media, health services, research laboratories, and more were represented at the event.

SE Career Services hosts multiple career fairs throughout the year to connect employers with future graduates and SE alumni who are prepared to enter the workforce and contribute immediately.

"We've had so many employers over the years comment on how prepared Southeastern graduates are when they come to them," said Stephanie Davison, Southeastern Executive Director of Career Services and Alumni Relations. "Our faculty and staff do an amazing job of teaching our students in ways that ready them for life after graduation. We're so happy that this event continues to grow and connect employers with workforce-ready candidates from Southeastern."

The Career Services office is always open to students, alumni, and employers with more information available at www.SE.edu/careers. Its next event is the Safety Career Fair on Wednesday, October 9.
