Hundreds of job seekers packed the Rutgers Career Fair Friday in hopes of landing one of the more and more limited open positions.
The fair was open to the public, but focused especially on recruiting minorities. Fewer employers took part in the event than in past years.
?Last year at this event, we had about 80 employers,? says Richard White, of Rutgers Career Services. ?This year we have 65.?
The fair was the second career event in two months at Rutgers.
For interviews from the job fair, go to channel 612 on your iO digital cable box and select iO Extra.
