Additional Methods for Searching the Fair for Employers

With a long list of companies coming to sort through, you may find it easier to limit your search. Of course, you can sort by major and degree – but there are some labels that might be of interest to your also.

Start from the “Employers” list in the Career Fair you’ll be attending. Then, click the “Filters” button and find the “Labels” filter. When you select labels, you’ll find some labels to help you identify companies that have uniques properties. You’ll be able to sort for:

  • Campus Partner = Companies that support campus through philanthropy
  • Headquartered in …. = Companies with corporate headquarters in Michigan, Wisconsin, or Minnesota
  • NACME Corporate Partner = Companies that are part of the national NACME program
  • Scholarship Sponsor = Companies that fund scholarships on campus
  • Michigander Scholar Company = Companies that are part of the Michigander Scholars Program – which provides additional incentive for taking jobs in Michigan
