Career Premiere provides an opportunity to meet some of the brightest students from Virginia’s prestigious liberal arts and sciences colleges, community colleges and universities in the western regions of Virginia.

It is not just a job fair; it is a forum to meet tomorrow’s leaders.

Students and recent graduates who attend this event annually benefit from a wide range of educational programs available through our liberal arts institutions.
They have learned critical thinking and analytical reasoning combined with excellent communication skills.
These qualities make the students prime candidates for employment in any type of organization.

Wailes Conference Center, Sweet Briar, VA

The redesigned event will function as a boutique style career fair with event rooms based on career fields or sectors. This is designed to give students and employers a chance for more meaningful conversations and connections. Students from all 10 of the sponsoring institutions will be in attendance, in addition to other institutions across the state.

The rooms will be divided into the following categories: federal employers, business (sales, marketing, management, accounting, finance, etc), non-profit sector, communications (PR, social media, advertising, etc), STEM (engineering, healthcare, environmental science, other sciences) and human services. If you don’t see your employment sector listed, please let us know and we can advise what room would be the best fit for you.
