Please join us on Wednesday, February 18, 2026, from 11:30am-3:00pm for the 2026 UW Seattle Virtual Winter Job & Internship Fair, hosted virtually in Handshake! This fair is open to all majors and years of study, including alumni, of all three UW campuses. You can expect to see employers representing all industries on Fair Day.
Registration will open to UW Seattle and UW Bothell students and alumni on February 4, 2026, at 8:00am PT. Registration will open to UW Tacoma campuses on February 11, 2026, at 8:00am PT.
Never attended a virtual fair before?
Upon registering, employers are prompted to enter in a schedule of Group and/or 1:1 Sessions.
- Group Sessions are 30 minutes long and open to up to 100 students/alumni at once, and they are best used for sharing broad information about company, culture, and open career opportunities. More than one employer representative could be present.
- 1:1 Sessions are 15 minutes long, and provide one representative with an opportunity to meet with qualified students who are interested in learning more about open roles and their candidacy. These can be treated as screening interviews.
- You might envision the actual Virtual Fair Day experience as a series of virtual meetings (as opposed to the ballroom experience you might envision in relation to in-person career fair events).
