Engineering Career Days (Day 1: Virtual)
Calling all Penn Engineers, candidates in STEM fields and those interested in engineering and technology - you're warmly invited to Engineering Career Days 2022!!
Organizations participating are seeking undergraduate and graduate degree candidates, postdoctoral fellows and alumni for internships and full-time opportunities! When organizations register, they indicate the majors and academic levels of the candidates they're hiring, as well as indicate the type of roles they have to offer and their status on sponsoring international candidates!

Student Registration begins Sunday September 11, 2022 at 2:00 PM ET.
Both large-group information sessions (30 minutes each) and 1-to-1 meetings between students and representatives from each organization (10 minutes each) will be available to attendees, but you MUST register in advance of the event (beginning at the above date/time), and select each group session and/or 1-to-1 session you'd like to attend.
Space is limited based on how many individual representatives and time slots are offered by the organization (anywhere from 1 to 15 representatives per organization, availability of each representative may vary)
It is to your advantage to be prepared in advance and register for your selected sessions as early as possible, for participation is on a first-come, first-served basis.
See these step-by-step details on managing your registration and signing up for sessions for additional information.

To sign up for Group or 1:1 sessions, your profile privacy setting will need to be set to “Community†or “Employersâ€.
Because employers can set requirements on the following fields for eligibility to sign up for 1:1 meetings in the virtual career fairs, make sure that the basics are accurate: graduation date, school year, major, GPA and work authorization. Click on the pencil icon in your Handshake profile to make any necessary changes. Students who have not yet declared a major or concentration should feel free to add their intended choice. Since only one school automatically transfers into Handshake, dual degree students should manually add their second school. Note to transfer students, first-year graduate students, certain PhD students, and post-docs: If you don’t have a Penn GPA, put in the GPA from your previous institution or previous degree for the career fairs so that you are not screened out based on not having a GPA in the system.
Engineering Career Days are open to all Penn students served by the Career Services office. Please see the "eligibility for services" section here.
