The success and value of CareerFest is evidenced by its continuous growth. Forty-six Ohio-based employers attended the first year in 2002. CareerFest 2009, held at the Aladdin Shrine Center in Columbus, registered 104 employers.

The employers - businesses, corporations, non-profit groups, and government agencies - and 1,100 students came from all over Ohio to discuss permanent employment and internship opportunities. Participating recruiters rated this as one of the best events they attend all year. Many employers and students are engaged in follow-up interviews.
