Career and internship fairs are a great opportunity to recruit employees and interns at your company. Campus-wide career and internship fairs are held in the fall and spring semesters.

Companies are invited to register for fairs a few months in advance. Nonprofits, government agencies, and small businesses are given a reduced rate. Sponsorships are available to support the career success of UNLV students and enhance your organization’s recruiting efforts and campus brand.

Visit our Career and Internship page to learn more.

Various employer panels and networking mixers are scheduled throughout the academic year to address the needs unique to student career interests and industry sectors. Our specialized career centers reach out using Handshake to engage employers throughout the year.

Companies and organizations can schedule special sessions to provide information about student opportunities. Career Services & Workforce Development and specialized career centers promote and support these sessions. These sessions gather the most interest when focusing on a specific professional development topic and can be hosted virtually or in person.

For in-person sessions and consultations to design the most successful campus experience for your organization, please reach out to Career Services & Workforce Development or one of the following specialized career centers:

• William F. Harrah College of Hospitality Boughner Career Center
• Lee Business School Career & Professional Development Office
• Howard R. Hughes College of Engineering Career Services
• William S. Boyd School of Law Career Development Office

Virtual information sessions can be scheduled through the Handshake platform. In addition to entering your session in Handshake, please reach out to Career Services & Workforce Development so that we may bring greater visibility to your upcoming session.

Tabling to promote your organization and its opportunities can be arranged in high student traffic areas and specific venues for your targeted campus population. Please get in touch with Career Services & Workforce Development by emailing careerworkforce@unlv.edu for available times, dates, and locations throughout the semester.

We partner with industry leaders to create educational opportunities for their employees, engage employers in academic and campus life programming, and help ensure that UNLV graduates are skilled and workforce-ready. We accomplish this by providing, centralized, coordinated, and guided access to departments and divisions throughout the university. This provides you the ability to shape academic programs, practices, and resources to meet your talent needs.

Employee benefits are an essential tool for hiring and supporting employees. One high-demand benefit is employee educational benefits, and they are an investment that brings benefits to you and your business.

By partnering with UNLV, you can offer employee benefits that cover part or all of their education. The best part is that while you can enjoy hiring and employee retention benefits, your employees can earn certificates or degrees, and your organization will benefit from your newly acquired knowledge and skills.

We are employer engagement specialists. We assist in customizing and co-creating an employer's educational benefit program to include recruitment and management. A hallmark example of an employer benefit program is our MGM College Opportunity Program and Amazon Career Choice Opportunity Program.

Each year, UNLV hosts an invitation-only Southern Nevada Leadership Summit with an opportunity to discuss critical issues in our workforce and determine opportunities for students.

Sponsorships of UNLV Career Fair or other networking events provide high visibility and top billing for your organization as a leader in recruiting UNLV talent. Visit our Sponsorship and Branding Opportunities page for more information.

Through advertising in the UNLV Career Handbook, you can attract attention to your career opportunities and get additional attention through the digital version on our website. Visit our Sponsorship and Branding Opportunities page for more information.

UNLV graduate assistants are an incredible resource when your organization requires assistance with analysis or research. The Community Graduate Research Assistant program through the Grad Academy in the Graduate College can connect you with graduate assistants who can meet your needs in the areas of your expertise. Additionally, the Office of Research and the Office of Economic Development can work with you on opportunities for industry-sponsored research.
