What: The WKU Recreation, Park, & Nonprofit Administration program hosts a job fair in the fall and spring semesters. The WKU Camp, Recreation, and Related Professions Job Fair is the perfect opportunity to recruit talented students looking for rewarding positions (part-time, full-time, internships, seasonal).
Camp, recreation, and related profession agencies typically offer a variety of jobs in many different areas (i.e. recreation, event planning and management, youth leadership, music, art, technology, ministry, recreation/sport skills instruction, aquatics, equestrian, etc.). This variety greatly increases the likelihood of students finding a position that fits their interests and complements their area of study.
