Career Expo of the Palouse

If you are planning to go to the Career Expo, please highly consider going to the WSU CON-nect Event the night before!  This opportunity provides you with a better chance to talk to companies of interest so they will remember you the next day, as they will be meeting and speaking with hundreds of people.  You will also have better chances of interviewing with these companies as many start to schedule interviews during CON-nect.  Please contact us for more questions.
