The virtual format allows students to meet with employers from around the world, and to accomplish this across multiple time zones, the fair will run from 3pm - 7pm CST. As an employer, you create your own schedule - you do not need to stay the entire time. To reach more students, we encourage you to attend the virtual fair over the full four hours.

Posting Your Jobs
We strongly encourage you to post your jobs to Handshake to ensure they are visible to candidates in advance of the Career Fair. Postings are active for 60 days.
IMPORTANT note about majors: Include all majors you are willing to hire. Students have been known to look for companies based on major searches. It's important to think of all possible majors that may be a fit. This will broaden the talent pool with qualified candidates.
Help students research your organization by sharing your Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) statement of purpose or mission statement. Our intent is to allow students easier access to finding and reviewing our employer partner's DEI statements on this website
