Students flock to Oneonta Career fair

SUNY Oneonta's annual career fair took place on February, 12th at the Hunt Union ballroom located on the SUNY campus. This yearly event is used to showcase potential internship opportunities as well as career paths for life beyond college. The event was packed with Oneonta students from varying degree fields. Despite the events popularity each business made it a priority to have some one on one face to time with students. Making it clear that they wanted to know your major as to best fit you in a department within their workplace.

                                             The Binghamton Zoo at Ross Park was among the events most popular Businesses.

Some Oneonta students were nice enough to stop and give us their take on the career fair. When asked how a career fair can benefit college students Senior Jessica Rosati had this to say, "I think it's great. I'm not positive what I want to do after graduation. So something like this can really help me to sample a lot of different opportunities without having to commit fully."

With differing majors and ages so to comes the differing of opinions. While the event was widely received as a success it did not come without some criticism. Senior Stephen Donovan expressed some dissatisfaction with the event, I caught up with him for an explanation, "don't get me wrong, I wanna go on record as saying that I think this event is a good thing. I just question how genuine some of the people may be. Maybe they can get you a great job but maybe they're just trying to get a broke college students hopes up and fish for free interns. It's just something to think about."

Overall students found the career fair to be a useful tool as they take steps towards adulthood and finding something they love to do. With so many varying businesses and organization there was something for everyone. Knowing first hand the busy lives of college students it provided the perfect one-stop experience.
