Connecting Students and Employers
Wednesday, October 7 ● 1 pm to 5 pm ● the career fair will be held virtually this year
The SDSU College of Agriculture, Food & Environmental Sciences Career Fair is an annual event hosted on SDSU’s campus in Brookings, SD, that connects employers and students. However, for the safety of our students, faculty, staff and partners, this year the fair will be hosted virtually through Handshake, the leading career site for college students. Companies will be able to host 1:1 sessions and group sessions in Handshake the day of the fair. Each company will be allowed multiple recruiters to facilitate these 1:1 sessions and group sessions.
Last year, recruiters from more than 140 organizations and nearly 800 students attended the career fair. Please register early to ensure your organization does not miss out on this opportunity to connect with our talented students.
Why participate in this fair?
Participating in this event will provide your organization the opportunity to:
- Recruit students for internships, full- and part-time positions, as well as graduate/professional school.
- Educate students on your industry, hiring practices, desired skills, and recruiting cycles.
- Educate students on graduate and professional school opportunities.
- Market and grow your organization’s visibility at South Dakota’s largest, most comprehensive and only land-grant university.
On behalf of our office and the College of Agriculture, Food & Environmental Sciences, thank you for your interest in recruiting our talented students!
