200 Stadium Dr, Williamsburg, VA 23185
What this event is
William & Mary's STEM Career & Internship Fair runs September 25 from noon to 4 PM at the Sadler Center. It is free and open to all undergraduates plus graduate students and alumni from the School of Computing, Data Sciences and Physics, Arts & Sciences and the Batten School at VIMS.
Roles you will actually see
Who should go
W&M computer science, data science and physics students and recent alumni hunting internships and new-grad software roles.
A STEM-only fair at a school this size means short lines and real conversations, so use them. Expect Hampton Roads employers, federal labs and a few Richmond and DC tech firms; the federal labs and shipyard-adjacent companies will need citizenship, so ask up front. Booz Allen, Capital One and the consultancies are your sponsorship-friendly targets. Go straight after lunch when the floor opens and the recruiters have energy.
Show up prepared
- 1Check TribeCareers for the employer list tonight and pick your top eight
- 2Print resumes and bring a project you can demo on your phone
- 3Ask about sponsorship and start dates in the first minute at each booth
Sponsorship reality
Sponsorship varies by employer. No organizer publishes sponsorship. Check each employer you plan to meet against H-1B disclosure data before you go, and ask in the first two minutes so neither side wastes the conversation.
Showing up is half of it.
The other half is being first to the roles these employers post, and having something real to show when you get there.
See roles the minute they go live, tailor one resume per employer, and reach the hiring manager directly. Walk into the event as a follow-up, not a stranger.
Start free13 weeks of building real AI agents and automations, so the answer to "what have you built" is a link, not a story.
