2023 Spring Internship and Career Fair logo

Save the date — the Spring 2023 Internship and Career Fair with Kenosha Area Colleges will take place from 3 to 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 4, at Carthage.

Students can register on Handshake 

Over 70 employers are recruiting for a variety of internships and full-time post-graduation jobs and are excited to meet students in person! This fair is open to students from Carthage, UW-Parkside, Gateway Technical College, Herzing University, and colleges in the Higher Educational Regional Alliance (HERA).

Do your students need help finding a job or internship? Send them our way!

Step 1 — Have them start building their My Aspire Plan (MAP) by working on the Securing Experiences Achievement. This walks students through the steps on not only how to find opportunities, but to do it strategically to actually land that future opportunity!

Step 2 — Get them to create an updated profile on Handshake (Carthage’s job and internship posting website) so that employers can find them. Handshake is different from other job sites in that the postings are geared to the skill levels of college students and recent graduates. Employers and postings have also been vetted to ensure credibility.

Step 3 — Encourage them to swing by The Aspire Center on the 4th floor of Lentz Hall. Each student is connected with a career specialist, and we can help students start from square one!

Contact The Aspire Center at aspire@carthage.edu, if you have any questions.
