AUCA President Timothy O'Connor kicked off the event with a welcoming speech - " The Career Fair is a special event that brings back AUCA alumni to their alma mater. This year 18 AUCA alumni are involved in the fair through sponsor and partner organizations, contests and career presentations. Thank you for your continued support and efforts to make AUCA a great place to build careers and professional lives." 听After the opening ceremony, students had the chance to visit different booths set up by companies. Each booth's representatives provided information about their company's culture, job opportunities and requirements.

Apart from networking opportunities there were also competitive activities such as the annual "Sales Start Contest" and "Creativity Contest." This year the prize pool exceeded last year's three times and amounted to $2,500 compared to the previous year's $800!
