Startup Career Fair · Updated November 11, 2026
Terms.
These terms cover signing up for and taking part in the Startup Career Fair on Monday, November 16, run by Builders. By signing up, signing in or coming to the fair, you agree to them.
01Signing up is not a guarantee
Builders decides who takes part. We may accept, waitlist, decline or remove any student or company, before or during the fair, for any reason, including space. A seat or a table is not a promise of an interview, an offer or a job.
02Hiring is between students and companies
Builders does not employ, recommend or vouch for any student or company, and takes no part in any hiring decision, offer or contract that comes out of the fair. Each company is responsible for following employment law in how it recruits and hires, including equal opportunity and work authorization rules.
03What students share, and how companies may use it
When a student is accepted, confirmed companies can see their profile: name, email, school, majors, graduation date, interests, answers, links and the text of their resume. Companies see it for a limited time after the fair. A company may use it only to recruit for roles at that company. It may not sell it, share it outside the company or add students to marketing lists, and it should delete it once it no longer needs it for recruiting. Builders may cut off a company that misuses it.
04Your company's name and logo
A company that signs up lets Builders show its name, logo and listing on the Career Fair website, at the fair, and in posts and emails about the fair. Builders may edit a logo so it fits, for example by trimming, resizing, recoloring or redrawing it in one color. The company confirms it has the right to give this permission.
05Photos and video
Builders, and people working with us, may take photos and video at the fair and use them to promote Builders and its events. If you would rather not appear, tell someone from Builders at the fair or write to braydenmay@joinbuilders.org.
06How to act
Treat everyone with respect. Builders may remove anyone from the fair or the website who harasses or discriminates against others, misrepresents who they are, or disrupts the event. Follow the rules of the building.
07Tell the truth
Everything in your sign-up, profile, resume and listing should be accurate. Builders does not check every answer and is not responsible for what students or companies say about themselves.
08Your sign-in and connector links
Sign-in codes and connector URLs are personal. Keep them private: anyone with your connector URL can read what you can. If one gets out, reset it on your page. You are responsible for what is done with yours.
09No warranty, and limits on liability
Builders is run by student volunteers. The fair, this website and its tools are provided as they are, without warranties of any kind. As far as the law allows, Builders and its members are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for anything that happens between students and companies, at the fair or after it. You take part at your own risk.
10Changes
Builders may change the fair's date, time, place or format, change these terms, or cancel the fair. We post changes to the terms on this page and email everyone signed up about any large change.
11Who runs the fair
Builders, a student-run nonprofit at Ohio State, runs the fair. The Ohio State University does not run it and is not a party to these terms. These terms follow Ohio law. Questions go to braydenmay@joinbuilders.org.
