On Sept. 3, 2015, Hostos’ Career Services and the Division of Continuing Education welcomed students and alumni to the Job & Internship Fest to kick-off the fall semester. The event attracted 38 employers and 154 students and former students to the Savoy Multipurpose Room.
The fair helped people find employment and/or internship opportunities and companies fill needed positions. It is the mission of the Career Services to bridge the gap and bring the opportunities directly to Hostos Community College.
Next up for Career Services is the Employer Alliance Job Fair on October 23.
