Career Fairs

Washington University hosts several campus-wide career fairs throughout the academic year, as well as fairs geared toward specific industries. Career fairs are an excellent recruiting opportunity, as they expose you to a wide variety of students, providing additional visibility for your organization.

Fall 2008 Internship & Job Fair: Fri, September 19 from 10 am - 2 pm
Registration will be available in late summer.
Participating in Events

We invite you to share your expertise with students at career-focused events on campus. In addition to communicating information about skills needed in the workplace and different career paths, participating in an event or workshop helps build your organization’s brand on the Washington University campus and allows you to interact with students directly.

The Career Center would value your help and expertise in the following areas:
  • Mock Interviews
  • Lunch With a Pro Series
    Our Lunch With a Pro events are small group discussions held during the lunch hour, where you can share your professional experience and advice for students interested in your career path.
  • Panel Events
    Our panel events help students learn about the variety of career opportunities in a specific industry.
  • Cheap Lunch
    Cheap Lunch is a unique event hosted by a student group in the School of Engineering. One employer per week has access to a few hundred students and faculty members as they each lunch. This is a great way to connect with Engineering students and faculty.

Please contact the employer relations team for more information about participating in any of these events.
