Career Showcase, our hallmark career fair, is designed to help you find talented students and alumni for your organization. The largest career fair in the southeast, Showcase is traditionally a two-day event that highlights students in a wide variety of majors in one location. For Spring 2021, the event will transition from a two-day in-person only event to a four-day hybrid event. Our definition of hybrid is to offer both in-person and virtual engagement opportunities for all four days of the event. There will now be two in-person days (February 8 and 9) and four virtual days (February 8 – 11.)

MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. DAY OF SERVICE

Taking place each third Monday in January, the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday is the only federal holiday observed as a national day of service — a “day on, not a day off.” The day celebrates the life and legacy of the Civil Rights leader and exists to move the nation closer to Dr. King’s vision of a “Beloved Community” by encouraging all Americans to take the time to volunteer and invest in their community.

Join fellow UF student volunteers and our partnering community members for a day of reflection and service in the local Gainesville community. Learn about service opportunities in Gainesville, meet new people, build awareness of diverse social issues and communities, and experience the community first-hand.
