From cybersecurity roles to internships, there are a number of jobs and roles open.<\/p>\n<p>There will also be jobs related to business analytics, data science, computer science and other IT professions. Several employers will be in attendance, including Deloitte, ReliaQuest, Honeywell and even Uber AI.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s no surprise since employers across the U.S. are strengthening their cybersecurity. Over the summer, CyberSeek \u2014 a cybersecurity workforce insights company \u2014 did an analysis and found a 12% increase in jobs compared to 2024.<\/p>\n<p>As for the event at USF, organizers planned to hold it in the spring but due to popular demand they decided to hold it now in the fall. The university says they\u2019re expecting anywhere between 800 and 2,000 attendees.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt could be anywhere near it,&#8221; says\u00a0Ivan Montero, adjunct instructor for the Center for Career &amp; Professional Development at USF. &#8220;Being that this is our inaugural semester might be difficult to gauge our numbers exactly, but we do expect heavy attendance from those in the industry. We\u2019re really excited to be able to offer this opportunity to our students for the first time and continue this as a USF legacy moving forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Along with the two-day career fair, USF will also be hosting a few workshops related to writing resumes and cover letters.<\/p>\n<p>Monday\u2019s career fair begins at 11 a.m. and runs until 3 p.m. Tuesday will be the post-career fair campus interviews, where students can schedule an interview with employers they met at the career fair.<\/p>\n<p>The university asks those in attendance to dress professionally and don\u2019t forget to bring a few resumes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"TAMPA, Fla. \u2014\u00a0The University of South Florida is gearing up to host a special, two-day career fair.
