Which employers are attending? 

Large national and regional full service and boutique firms based in Canada (Vancouver, the Okanagan, Toronto, Calgary, and Edmonton) and the United States (New York City). 

The list of participating employers will be added once confirmed, and will continue to be updated as we get closer to the date so check back frequently!

What should you do next?

Register on ACE via this event listing. Students must register on ACE in order to attend, and will be done on a first come, first served basis. Given the level of student interest, registration will be limited so register early! Students who are unable to secure a spot will automatically be added to a waitlist on ACE.

Plan to attend the CSO Careers Committee's "How to Career Fair Panel" in Term 2 to meet some of the employers who will be at the Career Fair and to hear their thoughts and advice on how to make the most of the Career Fair. Stay tuned for more information on how to register on ACE!

Remember to check ACE, your email, and the CSO Weekly for updates about the 2025 Large Employer Career Fair.
