About the Career Fair
The Chicago College of Optometry’s Career Fair has two main goals:
- For our students to hear from guest speakers regarding practice management.
- For our students to have access to a job & networking fair that includes guests looking to promote their practice, company, and/or career opportunities.
Our college has approximately 240 optometry students, and the Career Fair will be mandatory for the third- year optometry students to attend (there will be an open invite for our first- and second-year students, as well as any fourth-year students nearby on rotations).
A tentative schedule is below:
3:00 - 3:15 p.m. Registration
3:15 - 4:00 p.m. Guest Speaker #1
4:00 - 4:30 p.m. Sponsor Exhibits & Job/Networking Fair (light hors d'oeuvres)
4:30 - 5:15 p.m. Guest Speaker #2
5:15 - 6:00 p.m. Sponsor Exhibits & Job/Networking Fair
The event will take place on the academic campus at 555 31st Street, Downers Grove, IL 60515. A classroom will be reserved for our guest speakers, but the job and networking fair will take place outside the classroom in an open space set up with tables.
