Harrisburg, Pa. (July 24, 2025) — UPMC is holding a multi-day, virtual “Up Close with UPMC” career fair, giving area residents the opportunity to talk to UPMC in Central Pa. employees. The virtual events are spread over three days, with each day focused on different fields -- respiratory therapy and laboratory on Tuesday, Aug. 5, nursing on Wednesday, Aug. 6, and imaging and surgical technology on Thursday, Aug. 7.
The event is designed for people of all ages who are curious about a career in health care, or currently in health care but interested in a change. “You don’t have to know your path — this is a no-pressure event that’s a great opportunity to explore your interests,” said Shayla Thompson, senior director, Human Resources.
In each one-hour session, participants will hear a brief presentation about the health care field and then be able to talk to UPMC employees in nursing, imaging, surgical technology, laboratory or respiratory therapy and learn about daily life on the job. Attendees can also get answers about UPMC’s generous benefits and learn how UPMC supports employees’ growth, including education cost reimbursement.
TUESDAY, AUG. 5
WEDNESDAY, AUG. 6
THURSDAY, AUG. 7
