WELCOME TO JOBEXPO.COMM 2024

The faculty and staff of Penn State’s Donald P. Bellisario College of Communications would like to welcome the representatives of each of our recruiting companies as well as the students and alumni in attendance for our 25th annual JobExpo.Comm Internship/Career Fair here on the beautiful campus of Penn State University.

The Bellisario College of Communications at Penn State, one of the largest ACEJMC accredited undergraduate communications programs in the country, is committed first and foremost to preparing students to take their place in society as active, critical and engaged participants. Our faculty is noted for their strong professional and academic backgrounds, and is dedicated to excellence in teaching, research and outreach. We would like to thank the recruiters representing each company for taking the time out of their busy schedules to join us. Your commitment to recruiting our students does not go unrecognized and we sincerely appreciate all your efforts. To our first-time recruiters, we hope you find our event to be an excellent source for talent recruitment and that you make JobExpo.Comm a regular stop on your future recruiting activities. As for our heritage recruiting companies who join us year-after-year, you have made JobExpo.Comm one of the largest comm-specific internship/career fairs in the country. For that, we are truly grateful.

We would also like to thank our wonderful event coordinators from the HUB for their willingness to provide us with splendid hospitality and an exceptional venue right in the heart of campus. We have held JobExpo.Comm at the HUB every year that it has been offered in-person and we couldn’t be more pleased with the support and service we are provided from our hosts.

We are excited to be offering JobExpo.Comm as an in-person recruitment event. We are excited to be fully back in-person and to have 60+ companies in attendance for JobExpo. Comm 2024!

The in-person JobExpo.Comm on Friday, February 23 begins at 9:00 a.m. and concludes at 2:00 p.m. Optional interview time is available for recruiters from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. We welcome all recruiters to schedule interviews with students at the conclusion of JobExpo. Comm and at the convenience of their own time.

Finally, if you should have any specific needs or questions, please come to the Welcome Booth outside of Alumni Hall.
