WAYS TO ENGAGE

Auburn University career fairs and events help employers connect with Auburn University students and alumni and help increase an organization’s on-campus brand. Career fair recruiting events are designed to assist you in meeting your recruitment needs by facilitating connections with qualified candidates. 

To find the best recruiting event for your organization, we encourage you to browse the list of upcoming fairs on Handshake or via the events listing that are taking place in partnership with schools and colleges across Auburn University. The Career Connections team can help you choose the best fairs and events to meet your recruitment needs.

Employers may choose from several different recruiting models that offer varying degrees of control over who you will interview during your visit to Auburn.
