Your invoice will not be generated automatically in Handshake after you register. Instead, after your registration is approved, the PERC Treasurer will manually create your invoice in Stripe (PERC payment processing system). Invoices for new registrations received will be created and sent via Stripe email every Thursday. Please check your spam/junk folder as sometimes invoices land there instead of in your inbox.
You have the option to provide payment via check or by credit card. If you prefer to pay via credit card, there will be a link on the invoice to provide credit card payment. If you prefer to pay by check, instructions and the address to remit payment will be included on the invoice.
W-9 Requests: If you need a copy of our W-9, please email treasurer@percjobfair.org
Please note: Your registration is not final until full payment is received. Payment is due within 30 days from date of invoice and before the event date. If PERC does not receive payment within 30 days of sending the invoice, a late fee of $50 will be assessed per 30-day period. Organizations with outstanding balances will not be eligible to participate in the event. -
The Cancellation Deadline for Sponsorship Tier packages is January 17.
Cancellation deadline for Standard Registration packages is February 19.
Cancellations received on or before the designated deadline will receive a full refund, minus a $50 processing fee. Cancellations received after the designated deadline will not receive a refund and the balance of your invoice is expected in full from those who have not yet paid. Refunds for cancellations received prior to the designated deadline will be processed after the fair. -
Organizations that do not attend the fair without notifying PERC prior to the fair, will not receive a refund and are expected to pay the balance of the invoice. All no-show employers will be placed on the waitlist for subsequent PERC fairs for review. All outstanding balances must be paid prior to being approved for future PERC fairs.

Payment is due prior to your attendance at the job fair. If PERC does not receive payment within 30 days, a late fee of $50 will be assessed per 30-day period. Organizations with outstanding balances will not be eligible to participate in the event or register for subsequent career fairs.

Changes to employer registration information (recruiter names, certification areas, etc.) can be made by the registrant within their Handshake career fair registration. PERC will not be responsible for any edits to your information. Please make all changes by February 19. If you need to add/remove recruiters or interview tables, please contact us as that is not something you're able to edit on your own. For additional support, please email info@percjobfair.org.

PERC will be following CDC and Pennsylvania Department of Health guidelines for large gatherings at the time of the event.
