Nistler College Career Fair
The Nistler College Career Fair is an annual event hosted in the Nistler College of Business & Public Administration each fall semester.
This exciting event brings together talented students and regional employers for meaningful conversations about jobs, internships, and future career paths.
Students have the opportunity to meet recruiters from a variety of industries, explore career opportunities, and make valuable connections that could shape their future. All majors and years are welcome!
Recruiters will be able to connect with students from all academic levels who are known for their strong work ethic, leadership potential, and career readiness. Whether you're hiring for marketing, management, finance, accounting, supply chain, or any of our other Nistler College majors, you'll meet candidates ready to make an impact.
Don’t miss this chance to engage, network, and build relationships that matter!
