The Tech & Analytics Career Fair (formerly known as the Quantitative & Data Career Expo) is the premier Ohio State event for students seeking opportunities in the technology, data, economics, and analytics sectors.

Advanced research via Handshake is recommended to determine if a particular employer of interest will be in attendance and a good fit for your career advancement. You can also make an appointment via Handshake with a Career Coach to get assistance on your resume, interviewing skills, and/or job searches. Remember to bring your resume! Suggested dress code is business or business casual.

Attending employers seek to fill full-time, entry-level positions, as well as summer internships.

Current students must present a valid BuckID to enter the fair on the day of the event. Recent graduates do not need to bring a BuckID.
