UMaine to host virtual Careers in Outdoor Recreation events

The University of Maine will host two events that will provide students opportunities to network with people who work in outdoor recreation and learn more about jobs in the state’s growing outdoor industries Feb. 22–23. 

The “Careers in Outdoor Recreation” events are sponsored by the Career Center and UMaine’s Outdoor Leadership program, a part of the College of Education and Human Development’s School of Kinesiology, Physical Education and Athletic Training.

Students can participate in two Zoom sessions on Monday, Feb. 22, to connect with representatives from Maine summer camps and guide companies. The summer camp chat is scheduled for 5 p.m.; the chat with guide companies begins at 6 p.m. Participants should register online to receive the Zoom link.  

On Feb. 23, students can attend the virtual outdoor recreation job fair, where they can talk with potential employers about job opportunities. Register for the job fair online using Career Link
