The second annual Alumni Career Fair was held on Monday, September 25, 2006, in the GC Ballrooms at Modesto A. Maidique Campus. Thirty graduate schools were represented and 59 companies were present to recruit employees, leading to many conversations and ample opportunities for alumni to benefit.

The fair was one of the most successful of the university’s alumni events.  According to Dana Dellacamera, marketing and outreach coordinator for the university’s Career Services, “FIU is the only university in the Southeast to host an alumni career fair. We are in the forefront nationwide in offering a career fair strictly for alumni and we plan to present the idea at national conferences.”
