Life Sciences BC Career Connect Day

We are pleased to announce our fourth annual Career Connect Day. This dynamic full-day event brings together life sciences employers from across the sector and post-secondary students and job seekers. The job fair exhibitor hall allows potential candidates to speak directly with employers, with meeting spaces available for on-site interviews and other one-on-one meeting opportunities.

Presentations will focus on life sciences sector career and funding programs, innovative approaches to industry talent gaps, and more. In addition, students, business leaders, and HR professionals will have an opportunity to meet and learn from seasoned industry presenters, explore our extensive job fair, and enjoy networking opportunities.

One of LSBC’s most popular events, last year’s virtual Career Connect Day broke our attendance records with 800+ virtual attendees, including 49 employing companies, and nearly 600 students from 57 schools worldwide. This year we return to an in-person format to help nurture meaningful local connections.

Join us in making this year’s Career Connect Day our best one yet.
