    A few employers will do so. Others will bring descriptions with them. Others will not have any descriptions, since they are recruiting for a wide range of opportunities and want to gauge if there is a general match before talking with you about specific opportunities. All descriptions received will be available via OCS Announcements within a week of the event.
