WVU departments and units that plan to hire student workers or Federal Work-Study students for fall positions are invited to participate in the Back-to-School Job Fairs hosted by WVU Career Services as part of Welcome Week.

The first fair, open only to hiring WVU units, will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 15, and the second fair, open to WVU and local employers, will be held from 2-4 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 23. Both fairs will be held in the Mountainlair Vandalia Lounge. 

Supervisors with positions eligible for Federal Work Study or non-Federal Work Study are required to post student employment opportunities in Handshake.
