Career Fairs

Our largest campus based job fairs are primarily held each February. One event is a general job fair targeting all types of academic disciplines and employers seeking part-time, full-time, internship, seasonal and graduate school recruitment. Some discipline specific events may be held throughout the year or in collaboration with other universities and will be posted on our website.

On-Campus Interviews and Presentations 

In order to accommodate on-campus interviews, a minimum of two weeks’ notice is required to facilitate the campus reservations and marketing of your visit. Please coordinate the posting of your hiring needs in Handshake to facilitate on-campus interviews/selections. Presentations can be used to educate groups of students on your company’s hiring needs and culture. Classroom space is booked frequently, so as much advanced notice as possible is desired to secure a presentation location.

Campus Visits & Information Tables

Employers can register to host a table in a student traffic area during peak class times to promote current, specific employment opportunities. Reservations must be made with Career Services at least two weeks in advance of the designated day.

• A six-foot table and chair will be set up for your designated area.
• Employers are limited to promote their recruiting opportunities at their table only. No solicitation of products or services outside of the company's jobs available is allowed.
• Positions that are commission only, base plus commission, involve home parties/demonstrations or require start-up costs to the employee are not allowed.
• Failure to follow these policies will prevent the employer from future use of our services.

In order to ensure equitability to other employer needs and campus agencies needing promotional space, an employer cannot recruit using information tables more than twice in one semester. Recruitment events cannot be reserved during the first two weeks of class due to the high activity of on-campus programs and services that occur during this time. Additionally, campus recruitment events are also prohibited in the week prior to or during a campus job fair alternative.

Class & Student Group Presentations

Employers can be a vital presenter of career and job search related topics as we coordinate classroom presentation and student group requests. Topics typically include resume writing, cover letters, interviewing, social media and the job search, business etiquette, etc. Upon request, we can add you to our employer list when asked to present on job search related topics across campus. This will not allow you to directly promote your company and the positions you are hiring for but it can provide brand recognition to build rapport with our students.

Sponsorships or Special Programs

Please contact the Director to discuss ideas for a future semester event that may be of benefit to your organization while providing career and professional development to our students. A pizza party, lunch or reception can attract students to a career building topic and your organization’s recruiting needs. Food may be subject to campus policies regarding our campus contracted dining services. Coordination of such events is at the discretion of the Career Services office.

Resume Referrals

Resume referrals are only allowed for positions where it is major related, there is a base pay and at the discretion of the Career Services staff. Commission only positions must be posted for direct applicants only. We do not prefer the use of resume referrals in the recruitment process because it does not teach our students how to navigate their own competitive, independent job search as a lifelong skill.

Resume Drop

An employer can arrange to post a job in Handshake and use the Career Services email as a clearinghouse for collecting resumes for a particular position. Upon conclusion of the arranged deadline, these resumes can be forwarded directly to the employer.
