Attendance at our main jobs fair is a great way to meet a large group of potential candidates and is beneficial for small and large scale organisations both from the public and private sector.

Participation in careers fairs gives you the opportunity to connect with students interested in your organisation, raise your profile and gain excellent exposure for your brand.

This fair attracts a variety of students from all disciplines at the University and is designed to help you find talented students and alumni in one location. We want to make recruiting Sydney students as easy as possible so we’ve designed this fair to cater to your company’s needs.

In 2024 we introduced a Quiet Time at the start 
of our Graduate Jobs and Internships Fairs. This initiative is designed to offer a calming and inclusive environment for students who may find busy, crowded spaces overwhelming. During this time, we limit hall capacity, dim lights, and minimise noise to create a more inclusive experience. Your support in making our fair accessible to all students is greatly appreciated.
