Career fairs provide a unique opportunity for UC Davis students and alumni to connect with employers from a wide variety of fields and industries. Fairs are intended for employers looking to recruit students and alumni for internships, part-time and full-time employment opportunities.

Employer Receptions
The Career Center holds an employer reception the night before most in-person career fairs. Recruiters registered to attend the career fair are invited to attend the event through an email invitation. New recruiters and companies are highly encouraged to attend to introduce themselves, and to meet campus partners, which will include professors and academic advisors from the UC Davis community. This is a great way to learn about what students are learning in the classroom, skills students have developed and specializations from specific majors.
