Applications Now Open to Host Francophone Job Fairs in 2024

Are you interested in hosting a French-language job fair at your university in 2024?

The Cultural Services of the French Embassy is launching a call for applications to support US universities that are interested in organizing francophone job fairs in 2024.   

This is a unique opportunity for students to discover exciting career opportunities and learn about the long-term benefits of studying French without even leaving the country! 

Organizing a Francophone job fair additionally adds a professional dimension to the heart of university French departments and inspires more students to learn the French language.  

Interested in organizing panel talks, networking events, or presentation booths? Projects of all sizes and formats will be accepted.

The Cultural Services will provide financial support of up to $2,500 and organizational support, if needed. 

For more project ideas, check out recent job fairs hosted by UCLA and UTSA.

Apply by January 21st via this form!

Eligibility

All French departments at US universities and colleges are eligible to apply.

Eligible expenses for French-language job fairs include: provision of a room for the event, transportation and hosting of speakers, communication costs, and equipment rental.
