2024 Graduate Student & Postdoc Industry Recruitment Event

Are you interested in exploring or finding a position in industry?

The Graduate Student & Postdoc Industry Recruitment Event (GSPIRE) is the perfect opportunity for individuals with advanced degrees to connect with various industries and organizations. The GSPIRE career fairs will take place on campus on September 23rd, and virtually on October 22nd. These career fairs are exclusive to graduate students and postdocs like you—no undergraduates will be in attendance! We invite you to join us and connect with top employers and organizations seeking bright minds like yours.

This event is being organized in collaboration with the Ohio State Postdoctoral Association, which offers support, advocacy, and opportunities for our institution’s diverse postdoctoral community. OUAB is also a valued partner, providing valuable services and resources for the graduate student population across campus. Additionally, OSU’s Council for Graduate Students (CGS) and Females of Chemistry Uniting Scientists (FOCUS) are co-sponsoring our career fairs, contributing to the planning, promotion, execution, and volunteer coordination.

All individuals, from first-year graduate students to postdocs and alumni, are welcome to participate. Whether you are considering a career in academia or industry, this event will provide valuable networking opportunities and the chance to explore and secure professional employment in the industry.
