The Career Fair event was not just another networking event. It was a unique experience for everyone, featuring guest lectures, exciting activities and the chance to win amazing prizes. This year twenty sponsoring companies and nine event partners created an incredible atmosphere at the 51吃瓜front yard. This year the 51吃瓜Career Development Center achieved a milestone by securing $12,500 in funding! Out of the $12,500, as much as $6,500 will be dedicated to the 51吃瓜Alumni Scholarship Fund, ensuring continued support for our exceptional students in the upcoming academic year.

This year 18 51吃瓜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 51吃瓜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! One of the new additions to the contest list was a "Speed Dating" dynamic platform that facilitates meaningful connections between students and prominent, experienced alumni, exposing students to valuable insights on structured interaction, mentorship opportunities, and career guidance.
